Living with cancer MRI done!

MRI done!

Offline Reebok1 over 8 years ago

Had my MRI done today and got through it without pressing the buzzer, yay! :D

Not a fan of small spaces so the 20 mins face down felt like torture but practiced breathing all the way through it!

Had headphone on for music but could hardly hear it through the noise of the machine!

I have to say the one thing that did make me smile was having to put my boobs in the holes as I lay down! lol

1 scan down 2 to go! Bring them on!! :)

Hi Reebok,
I'm so glad to hear you made it through your MRI scan. Breathing techniques are said to be really helpful in situations like these so it's great they worked for you :)
Keep us posted with your progress and all the best for your next 2 scans.
Kind regards,
Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator

Hi Steph Bit of an update, had 2nd scan was due to have third today but my nurse/keyworker rang yesterday to ssy they had had their weekly meeting and consultant wants me to have surgery brfore chemo now rather than wait. I'm worried sick now. He also wants me to have a ct scan before or after surgery. I was due to see him on 3rd july but bringing that forward now. I'm worried that situation has changed from scans I have had. Never been so worried in my life as I am now. Kerp u posted X
