Hi guys, sorry I've been such a stranger. I've been feeling rotten and getting help with the kids, having people in the house doesn't make for much free time. I'm having an MRI tomorrow, one of the few tests I HAVEN'T already had done... they are going to use a catheter to inject dye into my veins and then make an MRI. Any advice on what to expect? I'm guessing it will be LESS than comfortable but in all honesty I'm just so excited to be getting it done I hardly care. This will tell us whether I am a good candidate for vein embolization (less invasive) or whether I'll need open abdominal incision and extensive vascular surgery. Of course we're hoping for the former!! Should know in a few days and then hopefully get it done SOON. If you're totally in the dark as to my situation I apologize but I don't have the energy right now to explain. Just pray for me tomorrow and if you have any personal experience with this type of test I'd love to hear it, we'll leave here around 3 tomorrow (Monday).

Thanks guys, hugs to all.

Take care,
