Has anyone here ever had an MRI? Not a pleasant experience. Took about 25 minutes, and was excruciatingly loud! I am not a fan of tight spaces either. Now the chase is on to get my case worker to schedule an appointment for me with an orthopedic surgeon.

Just saw a graph comparing wait times here in the US vs. Canada... average wait time for an ortho proceedure = 16.8 days. (Canada was 119.7 days)

So based on that, 4.8 days to go after today. :rolleyes:

I had an MRI on my shoulder and bicep tendons. It is loud, I just closed my eyes and waited for it to be over.

lol That's exactly what I did. I am by no means a "big" guy, and it was a tight squeeze.

Glad you got that step over with. Hope you get in to see a surgeon soon.

Just got a phone call, MRI results show tears. (Imagine that) Now, hoping I can get an appointment ASAP.

With a little luck, would the tear mend itself? Sure would be nice not to have to get it operated on. Good luck.

Maybe, but my bicep is partially "rolled up" in my arm. I am not excited about having surgery, but I want it fixed right. I don't want it to be half assed.

Some of us here have done 'body' work before. I'm sure with a little grinding and filler we could make it look good as new. J/K, good luck.

I am not getting a good vibe from my employer. It feels like I am being called a liar or accused of something every time I speak to them. It's sad how expendable we are these days.
