uhhhhh
John just had his doctor's appointment and they are having him come back tonight for an MRI to rule out thisand I'm freaking out a little bit. Not a lot bit, but a little
bit. I think that it's all okay no matter what and it will be good to
know, but just wasn't expecting this kind of a thing. Argh. Tears go
away!
So I wrote that pretty much right when I found out at work this afternoon. Since then, I've called my mom after work, and she (as always) was pretty good at talking me down. And I've cuddled with John and cried in front of him. lolWe're off to the MRI shortly, and mostly we're both okay. It's a little weird, but it will be good to have answers.
OH, like my mom asked, why do they think this?
So it's because John was talking to his doctor about anxiety, and how he stutters when he gets anxious and sometimes can't talk/talks really slow after he gets worked up.
So they're doing the MRI and then next Wednesday we're going to see an Neurologist. He said I can come with, I'm glad because I want to.
*sigh* It'll all be fine, no matter what they find out. But it was just so out of no where in my mind that this would happen today. Aaack.

** UPDATE **Heh, John has now discovered that he IS a bit clausterphobic, at least when it comes to an MRI. The MRI will happen another day, don't know when yet.
And I do agree, Kallioph (sp?) SHERYLM
that it is good they are ruling out something less likely, instead of going with the easier diagnosis. And I really do appreciate the comments. It's not the worst thing that could happen in the world, though it threw my world for a little spin, and it's good to know I have you guys for those out of control thoughts.

I understand that at first you almost get too much information. Just wait for the results and take it easy if you can.
He will probably come back normal, and it will just be something attributed to anxiety. But it's good they're wanting to rule out something more serious, instead of just taking the easiest diagnosis and running with it.
consider an OPEN MRI - I'm not a Doctor, but I watch a lot of HOUSE...we're praying and purring for you.
