Has anybody had an MRI and was diagnosed this way? Also what symptoms you had?  My radiologist suggested that I have an MRI.

    Hi,

    I had back ache and first did a bone scan which showed one small area of concern, this was followed by an inconclusive mri and a negative pet/ct.

    The area is too small to biopsy so I'll be repeating the mri on the 27th to see if there's any change.

    It was'nt as bad as I thought, I'm claustrophic and the scanner is like a "tunnel" which they slide you into and is quite noisy for a time.  They gave me head phones which helped block the noise and once I kept my eyes shut the whole time I managed fine.

    Tricia xx
