Thumbs up Mri

I FIT!!! -- I had that elusive MRI today for this back pain / numb foot of mine... and I FIT IN THE MACHINE... mind you, my arms were touching the tunnel - so no way in hell that a year ago I would have fit! And for those of you that care to know... yes... the ink in my tats heated up a bit - felt like I was lying on the hot sand on a sunny Florida beach - no pain, but it was an odd sensation. So, 2 weeks or so and I'll know if the MRI will reveal the cause of this pain!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Ohhh I remember having an MRI and I was just under their 300 pounds limit. I felt like a squeezed sausage in that thing! Glad to hear it went well!

Hi 2X, are your tats old? Usually only the older tats (8 years or older) heat up. The inks in older tats can contain metal . If you feel them heat up let the tech know so she can put a cool cloth on them. Burns can occur in these tats depending on the type of scan sequences and the tesla of the magnet. I wanted to pass this along in case you ever have another scan.
