MRI results

I got my MRI results back, it came back normal..BAHHHH.  I don't even want to get into it, I'm tired of it and stressed out over it..  Can I drink at noon?  Lol, that was my dads rule!  I'm just going to turn up some very LOUD and WILD music and try to clean my house that I've been ignoring because of my leg.  Music always cures me in some way, shape, or form.  Lol, tired of my piano music I've been listening too while I sulk in my own pity party.ha  So now that I still have NO CLUE whats going on with my body I have decided I better get my ass in gear and fix my problem.  All I can think of now is that maybe the gynecologist is right and I have to lose weight PERIOD in order to not be in pain.  Why do we go in circles with weight loss?  I mean, it's common sense!  I'm going to look at it a different approach this time.  lol I feel like a broken record!  But I'm tired of being obsessed with foods, and I'm tired of six meals a day.  I'm so sick of food problems.  I get so mad at food, VERY mad at food actually.  Anyone else do that? I'm such a binger, obsessed with foods.   The ONLY time I haven't been obsessed with it and in CONTROL was on Medifast.  So I'm going to incorporate my protien stuff back in my diet and just eat a dinner.  Praying that will work.

I know it's aggravating not to have the answer, but glad to hear it didn't show anything too. Brenda

I know you are so frustrated right now, but you'll have to stop and eventually look at the positives. Try and be glad that you MRI was ok. A bad result on your MRI is a problem you don't want to have. The might be slow to come off, just yourself a break and take it one day at a time.

Aw Holly, try hard to think about - how would the news have felt if it were some terminal vein disease and you get to be fat while you process something like that????? I know that you were hoping for relief and answers.  It is not easy to be in pain and stressed out like you are. Hey, it's not impossible to do what you need to do. I've told you before - WLS is a very realistic option to get this weight off you. After that, you still have to manage all the same crap you have to deal with now to keep it off once and for all.  I know exactly how you feel when you say you get angry at food and you feel more in control when it was out of the picture with medifast. But Holly realize things like that - or WLS - for that matter, te*****ally speaking do not confront the issue that you are out of control with food issues - not food itself.

And if you think i have the easy answer, no I DON'T. All i do have is you, and everyone here and every single tool i can get my hands on to help me deal with all this!

Well, I know how you must feel when your so hopeful to finally figure out the issue... but I guess it IS good news to hear they found *NOTHING* really bad. I remember taking my ds in so MANY times and feeling like an idiot as I left with him and they said (once again!) there was NOTHING wrong and I was over protective etc. I felt like they thought I was one of those Munchausen moms!  ................  So after a year PLUS went by and they FINALLY found he DID have a serious problem...  I  felt RELIEVED! And yet I felt GUILTY for feeling happy they found a problem! KWIM?  I didn't WANT there to BE a problem- but always BELIEVED there WAS... so it was a relief to finally HAVE that diagnosis and move forward and get it FIXED! So I know a little what you must be feeling now. It really stinks to be in that position! The PLUS side for you though, is that an MRI is about as good as you get!   Is your leg feeling better now? Could it have been a blood clot that had dissolved prior to the MRI?   Ds had one go to the brain and caused seizures after his open heart- there was nothing left but a slight swelling by the time they got the CT scan.  Hang in there my friend! Turn on that music and find a BRIGHT light to hang under! (I'd say to "dance under" but not sure how your leg is doing right now!)  As far as mad at FOOD... I get mad at ME! I think it would be much healthier if I laid it on the FOOD! Cause I'm one that talks DOWN on myself- likely, way more than I should.   Take care!!

Very good points, chunky! Holly, you can pursue this....chances are that you are not imagining it - many things are very hard to diagnose.  Just try hard to find other docs.
