davidsprincess's Journal, 11 Mar 24

Down a tiny bit more- probably from working outside a little yesterday, getting my flower bed ready for spring and trying to remove bushes that I hate. Today I have an MRI with contrast of my bosoms. 🤪 The surgeon to remove the little benign part wasn't aware my mom had breast cancer so he's recommending it to make sure there's nothing else. I'm not claustrophobic, I just hope I can stay still for that long. Nothing to eat after 930, MRI at 130, then Hobby Lobby just happens to be right down the road. Yay. Bible Study @ 6pm and that will wrap up the day if it goes according to plan. Happy Monday! 🤸‍♂️☕❤

Happy Monday. I hope it goes well. I have never had an MRI so I am not sure how that would be like.

Hope all goes well with your MRI! My mom and one of my 3 sisters had breast cancer so the hospital is always pretty careful when reviewing my mammograms. I had a breast MRI a few years ago. I think i was laying face down so didn't feel claustrophobic.

Best of luck with MRI! Whenever I go to Hobby Lobby, I mistakenly think I'm crafty and but way too much, which then sits on the bed of my extra bedroom till I finally put it away in the closet. I used to be crafty but my old lady brain doesn't allow it anymore....

Yes- Fritzy- it is face down. I told my friend that I will just pretend it is a massage I'm waiting for. Diana- I have never been crafty so I am not in danger of purchasing anything like that. Yes- Sherry- Hobby Lobby can be dangerous. Thanks all. I guess it will take a few days to read the results and then hopefully get this lumpectomy done. I just want it all over and the bills paid from it. I hate wondering what the cost is going to be for all of this.

I've had lots of MRIs, you won't have problems holding breath or staying still, it isn't difficult. I just close my eyes and relax. Holding you in my heart. 💚💜💛

My insurance has always covered the costs.

Will keep you in my thoughts today.

All the best DP. ❤️ Bosom. 😆😆😆 Such old fashioned term. Love it. 😂😂 My take from this was how you have to ‘pay’ for this. Have never done that in Canada. I can’t imagine. Is it like hundreds or thousands??

I'm ready to move there, Wifey. The biopsy was $2400 or something I just paid. This MRI is $745 AFTER my insurance is paying 80%. So... With the actual procedure itself- IDK- but I think I will have met my out of pocket or deductible. I always have to google what the difference is- and then insurance will pay the rest. I am thankful that we can do it but sad that it isn't being spent on a vacation or something more fun.

No more wigs for awhile, I guess. LOL.  
11 Mar 24 by member: davidsprincess
Canadian wigs are probably cheaper too. 😂😂😂😂

I get MRI’s fairly frequently including breast mri’s (dense breast tissues, family history of breast cancer) and i have found having music on helps. Ask them if they have music and to turn it on for you in the mri. They should be able to give you a headset and pick a genre you like. Makes it go by so much easier even tho they are loud.

I don't find the MRIs to be too bad for claustrophobia but I can't get over how loud they are. I'm a very sound sensitive person and they are so so loud. I tried music and I'll typically have it on but it doesn't really cover enough of the sound to be helpful for me. I hope your MRI goes well and that everything is exactly what they wanted to be when they look at the pictures. 💜

I found it fun to try to listen for a repeated rhythm in the loud 'bangs' as it circled around the table. There were sections where indeed there was a pattern repeating.

Please look up you tube channel Nutrition with judy interviews with Dr David Brownstein Iodine and also Lynne Farrow Iodine crisis (she has breast cancer and beat it). excellent interviews everyone should watch. they both have books the library may have them.

Leah- it was crazy. I thought I had had one in the past but I haven't. They gave me ear plugs but it was close to unbearable. Thankful it's over.
