Why Is A MRI Advised While With Vomiting And Abdominal Pain?
I was in the ER this evening with vomiting and severe abdominal pain. Dr told me they seen a mass on my pancreas and I needed to contact my family DR to have an mri asap. I asked him if it was cancer and all he would say is get to my pcp and get an mri asap. Should I be worried?!
hi.. dont worry.. your symptoms are common symptoms to gastrointestinal tract. MRI not always done to confirm any mass.. there are many conditions diagnosed by MRI .. so, get it done ..do not worry
