I get off set ultrasounds and mammograms. My dr. Wants me to get an mri but I'm scared. I’m late to this but I’d take an MRI a million times over a mammogram. Partly for level of detail and partly because mammograms are mildly uncomfortable. And mammograms aren’t that bad. I would still get the mammograms. I guess I'm nervous for the mri because they are so thorough that there's more of a chance of false positives.

Since we are all talking boobs....I had a mammogram guided biopsy this morning and true to.my Leo self, i brought the drama and almost passed out. I could use 2023 to start pulling out the good news.

My understanding, and of course I only play a doctor here on HIH, is that one shouldn't stand in for the other. MRIs are less conclusive. Now, that could be a money thing from hospitals, and I will always be open to that possibility.

Yes, this is what I was told as well.

That reminds me to schedule my mammogram. I get a breast MRI and a mammogram offset from each other by 6 months. I fall asleep in the MRI but the mammogram is just uncomfortable, but not painful. I get off set ultrasounds and mammograms. My dr. Wants me to get an mri but I'm scared. Same! I haven't done the MRI one but it freaks me out. How bad is it, noise wise FlightView ?

I haven't had an MRI for my boobs but for other body parts. They always gave me headphones with music of my choice. It is pretty loud though.

I had an MRI of my brain. They put the cage over my face.
::shudder::
I need to schedule a breast ultrasound due to dense breast tissue and mammogram limitations. This thread is reminding me.

I've had an abdominal MRI and it wasn't that bad. I also got headphones with music which helped.

How are the CA ladies in here doing? Thinking of everyone affected by this storm. One of my best friends is outside San Fran and they are hunkered down.

It's bearable in Northern San Diego County. Teaching with indoor recess and students who want to constantly get wet is...reason enough to pay teachers more lol

Just as an investigation was going to be launched into a government body's crypto/arms and people trafficking ring, an actress stepped down from her honorary role. Why? Just coincidence or something more?

I don't really think she has enjoyed pregnancy. I think gaining weight has been very hard for her. But I do think if he wants more babies immediately, she will do it, because despite being married, she is still a huge pick-me girl.

You have my sympathies as I had a brain MRI a few years ago, in an "open" machine, where I was basically the hamburger between the buns but with the cage it didn't feel open at all. MH was allowed to sit next to me and hold my hand the entire hour and thank goodness for that as I don't know if I could have gotten through it (even with Valium) otherwise. I have to have yearly breast MRIs, in addition to mammograms, because of family history and as much as I hate lying face down with my head in the machine, I'd take the breast ones over the head ones any day of the year. Go get your ultrasound! FX for good results.

This former actress turned sex cult leader turned inmate has hundreds of people sending her money each month. Most are men and women who she has convinced are her true love. She is literally getting tens of thousands of dollars sent to her each month.
