MRI results

I haven't blogged about this much, but many of you know that I have been dealing with a lot of pain in my left shoulder. I had cortisone shots in July and then started Physical Therapy in September with no improvements with both treatments. I had an MRI on Monday and I got the preliminary results today. I was told when they put me in the MRI tube that it would take about 25 minutes and I wouldn't need an IV for contrast since they weren't suspecting a mass. After 30 minutes they pulled me out and told me that they were looking over the Drs orders and they needed to go ahead and do contrast. So I got my IV and spent another hour in the tube. Yes an hour! Needless to say I was a little worried about what they may have found but I just thought there was no sense worrying over something that I don't know for sure. Anyway, results were called to me today. I have an abnormality in my bone marrow in my shoulder. I am going for an X-ray on Friday and my doctor has gone ahead and referred me to an orthopedic specialist. Please pray that this is not a major thing and that there will be something that can be done to fix this. Thank you!
