The Breast MRI


Pace got to Montreal yesterday and got the Breast MRI done.

First they put in a catheter and then add a liquid that shows the cancer better in the images. She said her arm got cold as the liquid flowed from the catheter into the veins and that it left an aftertaste. Then you lie down on a platform with two cut outs where the breasts go and then you get inserted into the machine for 20 minutes of imaging

Following the MRI the staff keeps you there for a half hour to make sure you have no allergic reaction.
