MRI over

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone

Just wanted to let you know that I just got back from my MRI. I had

to lie in the most ackward position for 45 minutes!! My arm was

above my head on the pinkie side straight and surrounded with

sponges and stuff to make it impossible for me to move. I had to

lie basically on my right hip with my left leg bent and on a

pillow. They were great at trying to make me as comfortable as

possible and I commend them on that. I had a pillow to put under my

head and the only uncomfortable thing was my elbow and shoulder not

liking being in that position and when it started I had thought that

it would be most comfy with my head lying on my arm. Once I was in

the machine I couldnt move that and it started to hurt. I was just

about to ask to come out so I could be repositioned when it was over

so that was good timing. They were only able to do my wrist and I

would have had to ask my doctor to schedule to two at once (which I

had enquired about to my GP but he said he had no control). After

that I did a bit of grocery shopping (my dog needed food) then went

to my GP and got my shot. So right now I am basically on the couch

for the rest of the day. I had woken up this morning so sore! My

bad ankle and knee are so sore I was limping (so difficult to limp

with both legs!) and I have a 'weird' finger that was sooooo swollen

and pops whenever I move it. Plus the fact of the wisdom teeth isnt

making my overall pain level any less. Oh well such is life. Had a

GREAT weekend so now I am paying for it. Wouldnt change it for

anything though.
