25 minutes is a LONNNNNNNNNG time. I'd never make it unless they knock me out cold. And if I can't move my arms to cover my trach, I can't talk. Fortunately my lung doctor thinks MRI's are useless for lungs so he still does CT and I get pancreas done at same time so maybe I can avoid this for a while longer. Thanks for the help.
Take care, Eileen
