Quix & Heather

I just picked up the MRI's to take to Dr. M. They gave me the actual pic's, not on a CD. They can't do CD's. I casually asked what strength the machine they used was. The receptionist didn't know, so went in the back and asked the technician. It is a  .3   . Yes that's not a typo   .3   . That was of my cervical, thoracic, and lumbar. Quix, do you think Dr. M will want to repeat these MRI's. Now I'm worried I have lesions in the spine and they just couldn't see them. Oh me........Help!     Maggie

Yes you did. I can't believe anyone even makes a .3 machine. I figured an open MRI machine would be at least a 1. I 'm figuring Dr. M will want to redo both brain and spine. What do you think? My legs are really killing me lately. My left one has now started trembling while I'm sitting down sometimes as well as when going down stairs.  Oh well, not long until Aprl 1......my son siad I really don't have an appt, it's just an April Fool's joke! After he picked himself up..............Me

I also found out today the brain MRI was on a 1.5T machine.
