GO ME! :D Mood
Tuesday, July 21, 2009 | A Happy story

I DID IT!!  It took 2 "Ativans," a very patient MRI tech, and my husband telling me a bunch of filthy jokes during the process... but we got all done in half the amount of time I worried we'd need!  My spine doctor will now have 61 glorious bunny-licious pix of my lower back and surrounding areas!  We got some pho to celebrate, then watched a movie and I fell asleep.  (I only had 2 hours before the MRI 'cause I was so worried.)  Now I never have to do it again... BUT... if I need another one, I'll have someplace to go!  YEAH! :D

 

My advice to others with medical phobias?  Bring a friend/relative/SO and tell each other jokes.  If they're a little raunchy, so what?  Do what you have to, in order to get through it.  And don't forget to ask questions so that you'll know what to expect. :)
