Okay with Small Spaces? --- Day 14/240

Walk: Radnet

Distance: 2.5 miles


So now if doctors wonder about anything, they can look right in and find out with modern technology.  Like, gulp, X-rays, CTs, MRIs, ultrasounds, and PET scans.  Every once in a while Ciwt's doctors send her for one of those.  Like today's MRI. 

The preliminary forms ask "Are you claustrophic?" and Ciwt answers "No." But then she's strapped onto the table, silently slid into the metal chamber, and the various loud banging noises begin. She lies still as instructed, hopes her "no"answer was correct about her reaction to small spaces, and is relieved when her table is slid out.  Next will come all those long medical interpretations which sound scary but, knock on wood, are no big deal (for her age).
