HI LISAP.
Maybe ask for 2 ativan for your MRI??? if it is a small dose. I would imagine it is a small dose.
Good luck, dream of your favorite place.............

Thanks,

I told my husband that he better listen to what the doctor tells us the results are due to I probably willl still be in dream land.  I received a letter from Boston Eye and Ear stating that my MRI is scheduled for Oct 14th, I have to change it due to I will be in Salem, go figure, I have no other plans all of the other days in Oct and November, that is just the kind of luck that I have.

Oh well, thanks again for those of you who responded!!

Hi All,

My new date for my MRI is now October 21st in Boston, just in time to let everyone know at our Worcester Luncheon how I make out.  I am nervous, I have noticed that my symptoms are worse, hopefully it is just stress.

Lisa... keep me/us updated and yes, at the brunch as well.  Let's see what he says first.

BTW, I think score is 3-0 (Sox over Orioles) :)

Hey Phyl,

I know it those ##!!! Red Sox that are giving me all of this stress :P

Over the Labor Day Weekend, I went to Maine and saw the Seadogs play, what fun it was to sit for only $10.00 and have the best seats in the house and this poor lady two seats from me got hit in the head with a foul ball (just like in Feverpitch). She ending up being ok.

Yes I will let you know how I make out with my MRI, wish me luck ;D

Please remember that the outcome of the MRI and any action you take or don't take have nothing to do with whether you will get a hat. Which you will. Eventually. :)

8 mm left AN June 2007,  CK at Stanford Sept 2007.
Hearing lasted a while, but left side is deaf now.
Right side is weak too. Life is quiet.
