MRI SCAN!
That was fun.
Head in cage. Ear plugs in (NO music). 45 minutes of laying still - for someone who can't stop moving, that was a challenge in itself!!!
Roughly 30 minutes in my mouth was dry, i had to have a drink. I pressed the "emergency" button and they were straight in there, like a shot. I had a sip of my drink and laid back down - away we went for the rest of the scan.
Bottom line is - I DID IT! I have cancelled SO many brain scans over the years, in fact, once i got there, laid on the bed, head in cage and i was only slid in a bit, just couldn't cope with it.
I think mentally improvements ARE happening. Slooooooowly, but still - who cares, right? Something IS better than nothing.
Cannot wait for tomorrows colpscopy now... whoop! It's does mean (much to my disappointment), i have a 3 hour wait between hospital appointments, so a little bit of retail therapy will have to happen! Such a shame..... ;)

Good luck with the coloscopy tomorrow. Urgh, not fun I know. Still, no different to a smear really, and I'll be thinking of you as I'm going for one tomorrow too. Crapper! Scared!
