Feeling a bit nervous

I  have my MRI  tomorrow ,SUNDAY ,Yes I  know ,It's Weird but  apparently that's the way they get the waiting lists down  ,This will be the bee all and end all of results , I have numerous health issues but choose to get on with them  and prefer to share with you the pretty things in my life rather than the negatives and occasionally share with you some of the health issues.
  But this one is a worry  as it will be to diagnose if i have MS once and for all.
 I am having a complete brain and spine scan ,
 I have had a lovely day with our daughter spending it at merry hill helping her to spend money ,
Me  as frugal as ever spent £18.00 on some M &S  knickers , The last lot lasted me for 8 years so hopefully this lot will too ,
On a positive note we have our bed being delivered thursday from Ikea a white metal bed ,we have the mattress so we will be able to finish the bedroom , Then i will do a post about it , This will help take my mind of waiting for the results apparently i will know one way or another by the end of the month.

    Hugs sweetie. Whatever will be will be. You are and never will be defined by your illnesses. You have too much to do and to give. Life is for living. I object to labels of any sort and the only advantage will be knowing what you are dealing with which might despite any negatives help with what you do and how you approach things. Doing things your way is also high on the list of to dos. I shall look forward to the bedroom post with interest as you do have some lovely ideas. If I can help let me know. Take care hun Pattypanxx

    I think you have a wonderful attitude to your health issues, and I can understand that a diagnosis would clarify what's wrong. Good luck tomorrow-it's a long process to have the MRI scan I think, but the last time my daughter had a procedure on a Sunday, she said everything went like clockwork. Good luck and hope you have news of the result quickly. Catriona

    I hope the scans give you some definitive answers. My sister has MS, she copes admirably with it...fortunately, hers is not the progressive type. Hope the new M&S knickers last as long!

      Thanks Sooze , if it is its the relapsing remitting type which is probably the same as your sister , I am just hoping it the fibromyalgia that is causing my problems xxx

    I will be thinking of you, even though you have health issues, it's lovely to see you thinking of the positive things in life. I have M & S knickers, and they have lasted me for years, some of them are due to be replaced now, but somethings are worth spending more on. Looking forward to seeing the bedroom, you have such good taste and do some fabulous makeovers. xx

    Thinking of you. I had my last MRI at 7.30 on a Saturday morning. As we both know, getting a diagnosis is like searching for the holy grail.
    Looking forward to seeing your bedroom when it's finished. As I type this, my husband is up the ladder painting the bedroom ceiling as we too are giving the bedroom a makeover.

    Thanks Scarlet hope you get some answers too , When we moved into this house all the ceilings had been painted and almost 5 years down the line they still look fine , Its a good job as that's one of the jobs that we would have to ask for help with xxx

      I've given up on trying to get answers. Nobody wants to look at the bigger picture and join the dots, and I am tired of trying to do it for them.
      We had a magnolia ceiling to match the wall above the picture rail, but it now all needs to be white to go with the new colour scheme. Our ceilings are almost 10' high, so I'm lucky to have a fit husband( apart from the clunking, arthritic knee).
      I keep telling myself it will be lovely when it's done!

    Hi there, hope everything went well with the MRI. I had a stroke eleven years ago and getting a diagnosis as to the reason took almost a year. MS was mentioned but it was not that, I have Antiphopholipid Syndrome or APS for short. I had never heard of it and I worked in care for years. It is an auto immune illness that can be caused by sticky blood. It causes strokes, DVT, muscle pain and general malaise. I have to be on a high dose of warfarin to thin my blood down. At least I know what I have and I am sure once you know it will answer all the questions. Good luck and I am looking forward to seeing your newly vamped bedroom. Love Andie xxx

      Thanks Andie , I am claustrophobic and it was really stressful as it took an hour to complete first with the cage type thing on my head then for the rest of the time it was for my spine but its done now and i just have to wait another two weeks ,I have never heard of APS either , my husband has had two strokes he is ok now apart from a tumour constantly that gets really bad at times , i hope your condition stabilizes or gets better if that's possible xxx

    I hope you get the answers and treatment that you need. Also understand the need NOT to be defined by illness. I recently took early retirement, and got irritated when I was described as "The deaf nurse". Bev

    Hope it went well and you get some answers very soon.
    Once you start dwelling on something it defines you. One of my friends lost a leg in a motorbike accident two years ago and started a new job three months later. When his boss asked him why he declined a staff day out at an indoor rock climbing centre he rolled up his trouser leg to show his prosthesis - his boss and colleagues had no idea. He's my inspiration! xxx
