had my ct and mri w/contrast and they said to him it looks like calsification,,but he wasnt 100% sure unless i had and aniogram done,,,soory about the spelling,,,....however..i have to have another mri tomorrow at the same place that said i had avms in the first place.so while im there i will mention it to them to see if they see the one on my pons,,and if so to mention it in my report...so help me if they say yes they see one there and its had grown..im am sending the results to my nerologist with the 4 eports that have said and conflicted them...with what he has..and then speck to them as to if i will have the aniogram done...im so confused,,and how can to mri not see them and say calsification and yet have two mri that say they r there and have grown...wtheck is wrong with the doctors that read these...any sugestions would be appreciated on haveing this test doena nd what its like for them and opinions on what i wrote..thanks
oh how can one mri and doctor read them and say yes you have three and two have grown and then two diff..places i havemri at say a white spot and one say calsification but not 100 & sure but even so they wont mess wuth anything on my pons...this is crazy,,i am about ready to forget it all and i will if this mri tomorrow shows no avm on my brainstem cause its of my neck and that how they seen the fiirst one the first time...then i might concider the aniogram ,but want anyone who has experiance to let me know what its like for them..thanks
This has me puzzled. I never had that trouble with MRI's. I did however have that problem with cat scans. For some reason they could never see my AVM on a cat. And... that's when it measured 5 cm. Go figure.
I dont know Ben its so weird..I think its not the machines its who reads them...so i will let you know tomrrow if they see anything agian on my mri since this was the first place that saw them..
