I know I posted that I was taking my kitties to the vet today.
I got my appointments mixed up. I am taking them in on Tuesday next week. I had an MRI done today for an injury to the cervical spine in a car accident. It happened in May but still bothers me a lot.
My babies Egan, Lia, Finn and Keelin are 7weeks old today. So far they have been healthy, normal little rascals. Penelope is getting better around them. She was enjoying beating up a tennis ball a little while ago.

How did your MRI go?

I had one a couple of years ago, and oh what a disaster. It was one of the old closed kind, and they were looking at my pituitary gland so I was wa-ay inside it. There wasn't anyone to come with me so I was completely alone. They had rushed the appointment (because it was a brain thing) so I not only didn't get the tour and the paperwork, I also didn't get the drugs (Valium, I think). It was a complete fiasco. I made it through the first set, but when they took me out between sets, I just about had a breakdown. I ended up shouting at the nurse, burst into tears, and curled up in the fetal position. It was close to a month before I could close the curtain in the shower, and I still get claustrophobic pretty easily.

But I hear the new machines are nice and open. Plus I'm sure the right drugs help! lol And I think they had preliminary results pretty promptly. Hope everything comes out okay.

The new imaging machines are wonderful! They are only half opened so you don't get that closed in feeling. No valium needed for that trip- thank the Lord.
