MRI AND PRE OP ASSESSMENT.

Yesterday I went to the hospital to have an MRI. The experience was horrible I had to lay face down on a bed with my breasts in two holes which was very uncomfortable, It took forever and I was very hot and bothered. It took ages to get the position right for the MRI to go ahead. The noise was very loud and I had earphones put on my head. It was my first experience of having that type of MRI done and I did Not like it one bit. Then I had to go to my next appointment on the same day which was for an assessment to have my operation on Monday to have a lump removed and tested for cancer. They took blood pressure, checked my heart, listened to my chest, asked me so many questions and now I'm all ready for surgery on Monday. It will be day surgery so I won't have to stay in hospital. I received a letter from another hospital where I had my cat scan done sending me an appointment to discuss my cyst on my ovary which I knew about already. What I didn't know was that I have a lung infection as well. I'm hoping the other hospital doesn't find out about the lung infection until after the surgery on Monday. It's all go for me with hospital appointments in different hospitals and lots of appointments.
