I was thinking today of the time my dad saved my life.

More tests tomorrow. MRI. Chest. Labs. New hospital. New people. Reckon I'll be hungry by 1 o'clock. Then, more waiting.
Good luck! Bring cds you like.
They get you all strapped down, stick plugs in your ears and then start talking to you. My shoulders feel like I've been broken on the rack. But it's over. They didn't kill me.
My last one, which was 2.5 hrs long was actually strangely pleasant, other than "how are you doing?" occasionally, they just played my music. I listened to old Byron voice mail before hand and they gave me socks to keep my hands warm. Of course it was an ER thing, so they were trying to be nice, keep me calm and so on. It also was a newish, very large MRI so I didn't have to roll my shoulder or anything. They did 3D too!
Full body scan? I was done in an hour, including the chest x-ray.
Nope, just my head and neck. They did a 2D one w/o contrast and a 3D with. It wasn't the usual contrast, I couldn't feel it.
The longest one I had prior was a full spine scan which took 1.75 hrs.
Why the chest xray?
