I’ve posted here before so forgive me for posting again if this seems like a repeat.

Has anyone ever gone to an outside scanning service because they didn’t have time for all the hoops you have to jump to get someone to take your symptoms seriously. I just can’t do this anymore… I’m beginning to feel like I’m making this up- my symptoms- sounds crazy but I’m caught between the people who say I should have further testing and doctors that don’t answer my messages. I found a place to do a torso MRI I’d just pay out of pocket- it would be sane cost as sn ER visit snd I’d be assured to get something done instead of talking babbling to doctors that don’t listen.

has anyone ever done this here?
