Close your eyes and breath slowly while you are in there. I imagined I was on a tanning bed and in a neat bikini getting bronzed! Then I imagined I was laying on the beach and closed my eyes because the sun was so bright. Do whatever you need to do in order to make yourself comfy.....play mind games...their great!

And it helps to have a few in mind before you get there so you are ready to tune them out. For me, the oldest stuff I have memorized works the best as it takes me to a good time and place. Remembering poetry and Bible verses and songs I learned as a child. Then there is the old standby of remembering the name of everyone you ever dated, or the details of every room of the house you grew up in etc. Jo >> Absolutely! >> [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). > Version: 6.0.827 / Virus Database: 564 - Release Date: 1/3/2005 > Thanks Janet and Kate. > > Can I also picture you holding my hand in the MRI.

I am so chicken. ;-) (((((((((((((((sj))))))))))) you bet i'll be holding your hand! and i'll give yours a very gentle squeeze, now and then, to remind you i'm there. it's not an unpleasant experience, sweetie. will your doctor allow you to take a tranquilizer, muscle relaxant or pain pill 30 minutes beforehand, like mine did me? if so, do take it. it helps if you get uncomfortable being in one position for any length of time. aside from the interesting noises, that if you have a silly imagination you can have alot of silly fun with, it's very well lit inside. it feels fresh, new and softly bright. it even gently blows fresh air on you. somehow, i think it was the oxygen mix in the air that cleared up my sinuses, seriously. so, if you have an allergy/sinus thing going on, you might even have that pleasant result ahead to look forward to.<smile> kate >> you're in my prayers, sweetness. picture all of us standing right beside >> you this week, wrapping you up in love and caring and wanting the best >> possible outcomes for you. >> >> kate Big hugs and lots of prayers coming your way...

Thanks Janet, I can sure use them right now. I think it is finally hitting me of all that we are looking at here now. Too much stress right now. SignatureLove and hugs to all Good thoughts coming your way too.

Hang in there, it'll be a long haul, but I have a feeling there ARE better days ahead for you. oh, and if Z answers giving you the divil for having all these tests done, just hit delete and forget about it. He's becoming a real bore with his rants. SignatureNann remove the Gator cheer to email me Simply the thing I am shall make me live --- William Shakespeare jo, what a crummy week ahead of you. try to take one day -- one minute-- at a time and know we're there with you in spirit and will want to hear how everything turns out. hugs, diane jo, this sounds like an awful week. you will be getting it over with in on big batch though. i will be thinking of you. Hope this shows up. I am posting from google while im on the road visiting with Acacia. johnie > Just to let you know, > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > .( _( )_.' > '---.~_ _ _& Hiya, sorry about the late reply - just wanted to say keep in touch, privately if you prefer. I have a close friend with a pituitary gland tumour so if that MRI finds one you come right over here for a big hug. I have broad shoulders just right for leaning on and lots practice with midnight phone calls that start with "I can't sleep ...". These things are very stressful but can be safely dealt with. Two years into it and my friend sees her specialist regularly to have those pesky symptoms dealt with and so far she is just fine. Stressed sometimes but healthy and so far (knock wood) no surgery needed. I know this won't get rid of all the stress of the coming week but maybe having another shoulder to lean on will ease it just a little.

Also with the storms coming in > may not be on for awhile either. good luck tomorrow, jo. someone here once mentioned putting a folded washcloth over her eyes during the mri and that it helped psychologically. my brother just had an mri and i told him to try it. he said it really helped. good luck, sweetie. diane I'll be thinking of you.
