That was a difficult day for me, lots of different tests and the C-spine MRI was just the last of it. And then to not be able to move, swallow, and having my arm set afire was no fun. But seriously, it is usually not a big deal at all to have an MRI. I am the biggest chicken in the world and if I can do it, and multiple times, you can do it too.

The information the MRI provides is of great value. This will probably be the best information for you to get a diagnosis and subsequent treatment. The MRI can also tell you if the treatments you use have been effective or not. I wonder what we did without this technology. Imagine that several decades ago diagnosing MS (along with a lot of other diseases and disorders) was a guessing game at best.

So this concludes my very long post about MRI's. I hope it was useful to someone out there. I will be back to talk about other medical adventures very soon including what it is like to have an EEG and Evoked Potentials. Here is a hope and a wish for good health for everyone!
