Wants to do a MRI

So my heart doctor wants to do an MRI. I kind of laughed at him and I said do you really think I could sit still in a tube for 30 to 90 minutes long.

He said nope we will definitely have to sedate you to get this done.

So that sounds scary and fun but looks like I might finally get some sleep in the future.

Love that sedation is an option for you.

I had to undergo two this year, my first time ever having them done, and my anxiety and claustrophobia nearly got the best of me, especially since one was focused on my head. They were gracious enough to offer a cloth to cover my eyes so I couldn’t be reminded of my immersion in such a tight space. Was still a battle though.

So being able to sleep through that? Absolute win in my book.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart there is no way I could do it if they didn't. My tics and outbursts are just to bad.

That's one way to stop pacing, ticking and get a nap.

Ooookay sedation sounds super fun. Never been. I've been holding off till I need to get a camera shoved in my bumbum.
isn't enough medication to get me in an MRI

@saragoodtimes You have the phobia! MRIs are no fun, but as long as its not hot in there and they are playing good music I can stick it out. I have only had to go all the way in once.
@TexChik grand Jury just indicted Comey

@saragoodtimes Hell yeah! I was getting tired of hearing that they "might". I kept hearing from Trump officials that Brennan and Hillary were also going to be indicted. That would be amazing.
