Took an MRI

As per orders from my doctor for my severe headache, I undertook a cranial Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan last Saturday.

iScan is a diagnostic center that offers MRI scans that are much cheaper compared to other centers and hospitals in various cities. The branch we went to is their newest branch, located in Mandaluyong City.

The center has a nice ambiance with a clean and aesthetic environment.

The results came in the form of films and a CD.

There are many more films given which were not shown in the pictures. A radiologic expert friend of ours will do the reading and will provide results in a day or two.

I also already bought the medicines that my doctor prescribed, mainly for head and neck pain.

This is the first time in my life that I underwent an MRI. My mother sister got claustrophobic when they took one, so I was expecting the same. But true to my self, I just went ahead smoothly and even fell asleep during the procedure, haha.

Modern medical advancements and tools available to us help us live a fuller life and make us glad to be alive!

How much is the approximate cost, in USD, of MRI in your place?

Looks like, there are no obvious lesions in the films!

Your headache could be due to ?migraine?

@hafiz34 Quotes from two different centers place MRI cost at approximately $182 to $742. Quite scary and expensive. How about the MRI cost in your area? The doctor eventually did rule migraine as the problem.
