The headaches are gone now.
Even with all the sh*t I went thru, I'm still glad I opted for the surgery.
BTW- I hate those MRI's....uggh. Do they seriously need to be that LOUD!

I didn't really mind the MRI. They gave me headphones and asked which station I wanted to listen to. I opened my eyes once while I was in there. I'm not claustrophobic (sp?), but even that freaked me out a little. I decided to just keep my eyes shut, listen to my music, and concentrate on not moving.
If something is wrong that requires surgery, I think I'll be relieved. Years of putting up with this shit, and knowing there's finally something I can do to fix the problem besides taking some drugs to mask it.
I should find out the results tomorrow.
