jordansmum

hi guy's we have just got back from jordan's mri scan he was in the scanner for 2 hrs :shock: :shock: he had to have the dye put in as well so he is extremely stiff and tired so me thinks a nice warm bath and early bed for him and for me as well 8), now we wait for the results i wish they could tell you something but hey thats me miss worry alot .Had another letter today asking another couple of questions for jordan's dla claim so at least i know that they are still looking at it and not dismissing it lol it must be like reading a copy of war and peace with all the extra sheets of paper i put in.
hope you are all having a good day

Hello, I'm sorry for you both, thats a long time in the scanner and having to lie on the uncomfortable convayor belt. Still he's had it now, lets hope it gives the docs some information that will help Jorden. I think he's right to have a bath and bed now, I found 40mins tireing! I ached everywhere the next day, as it was so hard and uncomfortable, so don't be surprised if he is achey tomorrow, I don't want to worry you, just the opposite. If he feels tired and achey, I did too and had to take more rest and slept a lot for a couple of days. No harm in the long run. I'm still waiting for the result, so I think no news is good news. Either that or they've lost it!!! I hope you both have a good nights rest. Love Sue

Hi...Yes that is a long time to be in an MRI but they are great things when you really think about it. I know I usually thionk of cremation as I'm slowly going in lol
I thought I had got out of MRI's because a couple of years ago my ankle was smashed and I have a plate, screws and pins in my ankle but the consultant says no......its long enough ago...so on Monday MRI here i come not looking forward to it

Love

Hi Jenny,

how's Jordan feeling this morning?.. that was some long ordeal of an MRI :roll: good on Jordan for being able to cope with that.... many an adult would have been asking them to stop.

good thing is that with it being so thorough it will give rheummy a very clear picture of Jordan's joints.

hope the DLA is granted too.

hoe you both have a restful day.

hi all well jordan slept like a baby was very stiff this morning so let him off his exersises but please don't tell the physio , i haven't been able to speak with the consultant as he is not there till monday i just hope the damage is not to bad as suggested by the xray's i expect he will compare them with his others this is his 5th mri in a year they must know him inside out by now lol either that or they like his choice of music 8) hope you are all well today xx jenny

Hi Jenny

My daughter (15) is to have an MRI of her brain soon. Wondered if Jordan has any advice for her. She has been having scary migraines which seem to paralyse her on one side of the body - like a stroke.

I have told her what i know from my own experience, but it can't be quite the same when you are a young person can it?

Thanks

Love

hi toni ,sorry to hear of your daughters condition it must be very scary for you both. Jordan has never had a scan of his brain he has had scans of his hips knees and ankles but i do know the scan for heads lasts about 15 mins the radioligists are very good and will stop if she finds it to clostrifobic sorry sp not good in the morning .The only advise jordan can give is just remember the scan is the first road to recovery close your eyes and think of your favorite pop songs and recite the words in your head and it's soon over. Hope this is of some help good luck xx jenny and jordan

Thankyou Jenny and Jordan

I appreciate you replying so quickly. Charlie wants to take her own music if they let her - 15 minutes is not so bad is it?

He is right - this will tell her what is going on - then maybe they can solve it

Thanks agian

Hi Toni
I Had my MRI on wrist last week and the man that went in before me was having his Brain scaned and as Jenny said he was in there about 15/20 mins he was very worried before he went in but when he came out he said it wasnt too bad and was happy it was so quick so hopefully it will be quick for Charlie too, hope it goes well for her.

well done to Jorden, brave lad.
