MRI--My Rotten Incident!

Well today was the day for the MRI.  Was is the optimal word there.  My dear friend Michelle changed her schedule around to come pick me up and take me tothe imaging center.  We get there and I take my anxiety med, since I'm HORRIBLY claustrophobic, and well...it doesn't happen. They tried but I couldn't do it. Like a dork I had a panic attack and we couldn't get all the way through.  I started sweating and panicking.  So I'm awaiting a phone call from my oncologist to see what the next step is.  Harder drugs I'm sure!  And while I wait I ask that God give me peace and I some how am able to do this MRI that we so badly
need to look at.  Thanks for any prayers to get me through this.  I know I can do it, just need a little help!

  1. I was happy to take you! A good excuse for a coffee and chat :)
    And lots of people feel the same way about MRIs, nothing to be ashamed of - you are a seriously tough girl, you are entitled to this one thing (well, I guess you have the snake thing too, but Ava will get you through that one... ha).
    I'm certain your doctor will take care of this and you will never go through that again!!!
