Re: high riding jugular bulb

This is something you will need to ask your doctor. I know from experience,

alot of medical mumble jumble is " normal " yet they sound scary.

Jerome,

This is the kind of question that definitely needs to be answered

by the surgeon.

Jerome,

I've had many MRI's and CT Scans. Some of the written reports were difficult to

understand and sometimes frightening. I'm sure that after the doctor looks at

the CT Scan and the MRI, he will explain what this means. If you have any

questions at all, you should ask him at the time of the appointment and don't

leave the office until you have all of them answered. Now is a good time to

start jotting them down. It would probably be a good idea to take a hearing

person with you so that you don't misunderstand anything. Please let us know

when your appointment is and the results.

Hi there,

I just got my CT scan, still waiting for my MRI scan, looks like MRI scan

took longer days.

Now, I'm a bit worried about my CT scan (I will go to the docter after I

received my MRI scan), everything is normal except one thing noted by the

interpreter of the result:

HIGH-RIDING JUGULAR BULB

Jerome, for sure talk to the doctor about it. A high jugular bulb

can be a normal variant of a cat scan reading. It is something that

the surgeon will need to pay attention to during surgery. I would

ask if he has experience doing CI's on patients with this variant and

if he will need to adjust his insertion procedure due to this. Who

knows, it may not look high on the MRI scan.

Good luck,

Elaine.
