Charm, I have my first scan in the beginning of January. My team agreed that an MRI with contrast would give the most accurate picture, as well. I panic with MRIs, despite lots of meds. The only way I can get through it is to take meds and the let my husband come in and rub my legs during the scan. There's something calming about knowing that he is there and could "pull me out in a pinch". I know this sounds crazy, but that's me!
Best of luck with your scan. Let's cross the finish line together, holding hands!
Love ya, Kerri
