[NP-Clinical] Re: Breast MRIs

[Julie Orfirer]

First, Chris, I'm so sorry to hear that you have to go through this again.  Every day I remind myself that the cancer is gone gone gone never to return.  For whatever it's worth it's my power-of-positive-thinking message.  I am taking my Tamoxifen....

I have my first MRI a week from today.  Can't wait.... What's really a bummer is you can't take an ipod into an MRI!  It sounds like much more torture than the mammo - which I never found that bad.  (Mammos go so much faster when there's only one breast to xray!)

Julie
Don't  know 
which is worse - the torture of the mammogram, or the MRI.  I do know  that the 
'cradle' you rest in, motionless, for 1/2 hour was not designed by a  woman who 
ever had to go through it!
