Mr scaning question

Post by David22 »

I was wondering you who done mr scaning, did you prepared for it different from when you preparing for colonoscopy, becouse nurse told me just drink your 2 litres of water ( which contains 2000mg Magnesium and other minerals) and youll be fine.
I mean did you use some other products or something or how did you prepared/cleaned?

Hi David,

I've never had an MRI scan of my gut, (I've had MRI scans of my brain, but only CT scans of my digestive system). But I'm pretty sure that 2,000 mg of magnesium oxide will clean you out.

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

Before my colonoscopy to determine what was making me so sick (MC) my colon specialist ordered A MRI of my gut to rule out who knows what I had no prep to drink to clean me out I just could not eat or drink anything after midnight they took A scan of my gut and then I had to drink two bottles of ? (white chalk) wait twenty minutes then they scanned my gut again.(revealed nothing)
Did your Doc say what he is looking for?
What kind of issues are you having to have A MRI done?
