I have a MRI scheduled at 4:30 Eastern time up here in PA. The past six weeks I have been experiencing severe migraine/rebound headaches. I have not had a day go by that I have not had a headache. They have done bloodwork to rule out lyme and west nile, but are awaiting some additional for bicarbonate levels. I have been vomiting along with these as well. I already have sleep apnea and that stupid machine has not helped. My doctor for the first time this week mentioned the likelyhood of a tumor since my eyesight has been affected as well. I appreciate your prayers..thanks
Zack

The MRI went off without a hitch and they told me that they would have them read by Wednesday (tomorrow). The only thing that they asked me that bothered me after the scan was "have you had any previous head trauma?"...wouldn't you think they would've asked that before the screen? I dunno....my kids lightened the mood for me when I got home by asking me, I know my wife put them up to it though, " Daddy, did they find your brain?"
Again, thanks for your continued prayers and well wishes...and Baldspot, Brandywine Hospital is not any place to you would want to take your family or yourself, ever.

is the MRI the one that makes you feel like you're pee'n on yourself? Or is that a Catscan?
I'm glad everything went well and hopefully everything else will also be!

HMO- you need to check out modern medicine (at least, physicians OUTSIDE of the south)
PZ- re: Brandywine; uh... yeah

OUCH
glad you're home and will continue to keep you in thoughts and prayers.

That's the little secret in the area - drive to West Chester or Lancaster instead of going to Bwine. Before I moved here my wife worked at Penn State's children hospital where she got referrals from Brandywine. When our child was born, she would not go there. We drove to Chester County.
Glad they found the brain.
