The only time they mentioned about the dye was when my ortho said that after I have the ICD that they can never do MRI's ever again and would have to do the Myelogram and dye and he made a face like it might be painful? Actually, my Radiculapathy has been not too bad. Now that the epidurals are wearing off, I'm not sure what will happen with that. I'm getting a lot of that shoulder and shoulder blade pain again. With the exception of worrying about missing out on summer (a very big deal for those of us who live in MN) I'm ready to get all this over with and move on to better things and feeling better. So there it is. Thanks for the happy thoughts. I have a feeling I am going to need them.
