That is one of the few things I have never had done. A MRI, I mean. My mom had one once. If she can handle it (afraid of everything!!), you can handle it.

Are you claustrophobic? That would be the only issue.

MRI is cake, Bob. No worries.

They'll tell you to lay still...generally offer you some head phones. I chose to close my eyes and not quite nap, but pretty close to it.

Thanks fellers. I've been told that before, it's nothing..... I'm not claustsldifdslfargiu, (not afraid of small areas). Guess they'll figure out if I need back surgery, or not that way. Long as me legg quits hurting.........

A MRI beats a proctology exam any day of the week, lol. Hang in there bud, you will make it thru this.

BTW "Penny" is my only sweetheart, but you are my bestest friend,harde har har. Did you get that spare for nomo kabluie mounted yet?

Hope all go's well with the MRI, don't worry it will. Its the best way to figure whats wrong with you, then you will be on the road to repair.

Had that spare tire mounted the first day backto work. Holds air just fine. It's burried under a bunch of wood that we've been picking up in town from all the storm damage.
I'd say you're right on another man's finger in my azz being worse than an MRI.

I was only guessing on that one, so what is the outcome of the MRI? Is everything ok? Hope so, take care of yourself ok.

I just had a guy drop of his truck for me to do a brake job. last month he called for me to do a pad slap, now since he put it off he needs pads, rotors, and a caliper, $200+ in parts and and about $150 in labor, just to save $80 last month.
