Waiting for MRI results
I'm waiting for that important phone call on the results of my breast MRI.
We've all been there: waiting for that "get out of jail free card" for a normal life!
Groan, I hate waiting, lol!

Re: Waiting for MRI results
Not that it makes it any easier but am right there with you sis :-). Waiting for my CT results. Trying to figure out if I should call to see if they have it or be "patient" and wait. (double-groan :-) )

Re: Waiting for MRI results
Finally found out today that mine was clear as well :-). Nothing like waiting for the results and first have your onc nurse not return your call and when you finally get her start the conversation with "Well...." (followed by a looooong pause) I told her that was not fair to get my heart rate up that quick :-) (she actually had to read the results, hence the pause).
