Re: Fibro/Back Pain/Hip Pain?Debra B

I would have been like you with my MRI if I had not had valium and pain meds

first. Maybe ask your dr next time and explain your anxiety. The pain is

another story. I barely survived that. Laying on the back on a hard table is

no fun. Hope they can fix you up hun.

***Note from Co-Owner: I had one of these done back in Jan where I was sitting

up for the MRI and it was one of the best experiences I ever had. And of course

it showed that I had something wrong with my lower back. It showed mild

scoliosis and bulging discs. ***

Please look into stand up MRI's in your area! Most insurance covers

these and they are wonderful! You are either standing or they put in a

bench for you to sit, normally have a tv you can watch as well. Since

your not laying down you don't have the pain its a lot easier to be

still and the MRI is not as clausterphobic either.

Good Luck,
