Guest guest Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 Hi again. still has his first Shriners appointment on October 19th. However, I talked to the PA from the spine team today, and she recommended him NOT get an MRI prior to his appointment. She said while they used to recommend this for everyone, new studies have shown that it is not always needed. She said she didn't want him to have the anesthesia risk unless absolutely necessary. I am going to push our original MRI date back to after our Shriners appointment and go from there. Has anyone else had this experience? It suprised me...but she said to definitely wait and see if even needs one based on his exam and XRays.... Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
