    Something to which I can look forward, sort of

    Now I have something to which I can look forward.

    I got a letter from my craniotomy Dr. over the weekend reminding me that I am due for an MRI.

    So they are checking with the other surgeon in the office (the one I went to see about my cyst) to see if he has the disk from the May 4 MRI and if it has the info Spetzler needs.

    So she looks in my chart and tells me, It says here MRI August 09 and angiogram August 10. Oh yea. maybe I can have another lumbar puncture while I am there too.
    Score 3 strokes, 4 seizures and 2 brain surgeries

    I've had brain surgery, what's your excuse?

    Have them check your timing belt, while they're at it!

    Good luck.

    AH, more fun in the MRI machine - I'll keep you in my thoughts.

    (My husband just had a full battery of tests - non medical but psych, intelligence type- to check on his post stroke recovery. He said one question was "what is the speed of light" and asked me if I knew. I told him that's what the internet is for. Geez, other than a science type, who walks around with that info in their head?)
