MRI right or wrong?

How many people have either heard or had an MRI come back clean but in reality there was something there? My brain MRI came back clear even with a reread by a facility member and my onc talked to the reading radiologist.
I saw my eye doc today and he had to dialate my eyes to further observe, but in short he said my nerves are swollen and it is coming from pressure in my brain??? I have been so upset and crying and just plain mad. He said I need to see my onc right away and I needed another MRI because it could be wrong. I talked to my nurse and that is where the reread came in and the next step for me is to see a neurologist. However I do have a triangle blind spot in my left eye that has been there for several days which has gone along with some really bad headaches. I did have an adj from my chiropractor this morning and my neck was in a big mess. My ONC did give me pain meds, I tried tylenol, Ibu 800mg. Nothing would touch the headache, but I tried yesterday Excederin Migrain and it worked perfect. So any advise anyone? I know we are all scared out there. I am usually stronger than this but tonight I am a whipped noodle!!!

Hugs,
Shonda
