Saw the doctor at the hospital, she gave me a reflex test and decided i didn't need one.
That was so not worth sitting in traffic for.

Yep no MRI. I'm a public patient, we don't have the money to demand one. I'll wait and see what my GP does, but i think that's the only place you can get one on your head. There are other places that can do your back, but not your knees (go figure).

I begged for an MRI.. and my doc gave me an x-ray. I begged for an MRI again, and the doc gives me a CT scan. Docs here don't give MRIs at all here. You should get the MRI if you have the chance.

I've never had trouble getting them on my back, but for some reason it's hard to get one anywhere else.
I'll jump at the chance if i can get one.

That stinks  aggressive
I know usually not easy to get one, I must be lucky I've had two .

Every visit just keep asking, hopefully they will give in....

My doctor wasn't happy. He said he didn't ask them in he 'thought' i should have, it was to be done.
So no doubt he would have sent off a letter or something.
What he said about the reflex test isn't repeatable, lol.

Good to see your Doctor supporting you  Thumbs someone over riding his request would be very annoying  Smile
Keep us posted on dates when you finally get a booking  Smile
