My MRI Results

Were entirely uneventful, as predicted.  My head MRI showed the dreaded sinusitis and the cervical MRI showed two "bulged discs," which sounds pervy to me.  :-P

So for those who don't know or don't remember, I'm still classified as "peripheral neuropathy," aka RBS (Retarded Body Syndrome, as I like to call it).

Wear a helmet?  Just kidding.  :P

I have no idea what that means or is.  It might not be a big deal.

well, with my sinuses, I have been told that in the last year I have been snoring ALOT... loudly lol -- from what my husband says :) He said I never used too... but now I do --meh, lucky for him I guess!!! I also had an incidental finding of cavum septum pellucidum -- and I did a little research on that, and I guess its like the soft spot on a baby's head, that is supposed to close off??? I cant find a clear answer on that either....

Yeah, that's why it is an "incidental" finding.  It's like saying "Oh, btw, how are your sinuses, any problems?"

Quix has told us, and I've heard it verified elsewhere too, that MRIs way overplay the sinus issue. It's just the nature of the beast, and not to worry.

If you have symptoms that seem like a sinus infection, your doc may order a CAT scan, which is much more accurate for these purposes.

If you don't, let sleeping sinuses lie. And sleeping MRIs. You'll know it if you really have a problem.

It's basically a sinus infection, usually not a big deal.
