I had posted about a week ago that i was experiencing pain still and other weird symptoms and between my breast surgeon and my oncologist they wanted to have me go for an MRI for further information.

Just a heads up in case this ever happens to any of you...you can't get an MRI with tissue expanders. I went all the way to the city, got coverage for my 5 kids, and they called me up and told  me I couldnt have the MRI. I amso aggravated. Someone should have known that before sending me for this test.

 now what? I see my oncologist today for a clinical examination but that doesn't show what is really going on. I am a little nervous as I am having a lot of weird pains, weakness,numbness and some other things going on. i wasn't planning on having my exchange surgery to the implants until my babies were walking solidly. They turn 1 on 3/16 so I was hoping for April but that is only if they are walking good and don't need me to pick them up as much (long shot).
