Tuckerman48 Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Finally will be getting those done this week!!!! I have yet to have a "full" headache, but I know they are coming, and my new Doc, THANK YOU ALLEYOOP!, prescribe me these two imagining appointments. Wonder what they will find... I am really hoping they don't confirm what I have suspected for a while... that my noggin is empty. MRI, I know what that is... been there done that for my back, but MRA, not sure what that is. Anyone know what an MRA is looking at/for? Pain Free times to you all! Quote
alleyoop Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Anyone know what an MRA is looking at/for? Magnetic Resonance Angiogram http://www.webmd.com/heart-disease/magnetic-resonance-angiogram-mra Quote
Tuckerman48 Posted January 9, 2012 Author Posted January 9, 2012 So its looking more at the blood vessels? That is where I am confused. Can it see nerves? So many questions , Guess I will find out today! TTFN, Tuck Quote
CHfather Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 I am really hoping they don't confirm what I have suspected for a while... that my noggin is empty. When the old-time baseball pitcher Dizzy Dean was hit in the head by a line drive and knocked out, the medical-report headline in the paper the next day said "X-Ray of Dean's Head Reveals Nothing."

Tuckerman48 Posted January 19, 2012 Author Posted January 19, 2012 CH Father... now that is funny... I don't care who you are. LOL Kyle, I go back at the end of the month for the doc to read the results. I can't tell a thing from the MRI and MRA, except that at least something was in there .... and that was a relief! LOL.

Tuckerman48 Posted February 1, 2012 Author Posted February 1, 2012 Had my results read, and nothing. All normal. Guess I should be happy about that, but am somewhat disappointed. Did have a minor hit the other night, as I am finishing up a divorce and some other stress with the business. 5 mins on the O2 tank, and all was good. It may have also been a small rebound from the treatment on Wed. night. Who knows. But needless to say, has my anxiety through the roof. Hopefully, I will not go into cycle, as my last one was around this time last year. Weather has been crazy here, as it seems to be crazy all over. Hot then a cold snap, then perfect fall day... I can still drink a beer, so I don't know what to think about this little hit. Came from nowhere, and was gone quick. weird. Normally, in a full cycle or the beginning, looking at a beer would give me a hit! Hope everyone is doing well! Quote
