First, thanks to everyone who participated in and commented on my One-Liner Wednesday and my SoCS. I’ve read all your wonderful comments, and I shall strive to reply to them all tomorrow.
Speaking of tomorrow, I’m going to get my MRI done on my noggin at 7am. I have to be at the hospital 45 minutes early, so that’ll be fun.
Wish me luck. 🙂
P.S. From the date the doctor ordered the MRI to the date of the test was almost exactly one month, for those wondering what the wait times are really like in Canada. Is that much longer than it would take in the US? Just wondering.

Good luck and here in the USA where I am in NJ I just had a cat scan scheduled within days and then depends on the insurance company giving the OK. Same with MRI’s. No long waits and the wait is usually due to the insurance company giving its ok and that depends on the doctor too. Maybe the type of doctor although I have never had a long wait except in 1987 when it took them forever to schedule my gall bladder surgery and the stones moved out of the gall bladder and into the bile duct and it caused a problem due to the long wait and the stones moving due to the high inflammation. I got the scans fine, but the surgery was already major surgery and then became even more major surgery with the complications.

Yes it was and I kept telling them that I was in pain, but all I got was “what do you expect you just had major surgery and so on.” My 4 day stay ended up being 2 and a half weeks and 2 hospitals. Anyway it’s over, good luck with your MRI.

I am sensing a lot of love here. I had a herniated disk and it only took about a week for me to get an MRI appointment. My body is bigger than that of many other people, so I felt a bit claustrophobic being jammed into that machine, but it was over in 20 minutes and they let me listen to music. Good luck.

I don’t think we would wait a month here for an MRI.

I think here it depends on the circumstance, too. If it was an emergency, the wait would be hours rather than weeks. In my case, it’s just to rule out a problem.
