...once it starts, tomorrow, at 08:00, that is. It looks like I'll be going in for an MRI tomorrow, bright and early. I've been a bit worried, as i had a spinal fusion sometime back in 1997 (basically, I've got two stainless-steel metal rods holding up my spine now). MRISafety.com ( username/password: "cypherpunk", if you don't want to create an account ) seems to imply that it's safe, but i don't know how much i'd trust a site that forces you to log in to see the information. I'll ask the MRI techs tomorrow, hopefully they'll give me a useful answer.

after the MRI tomorrow, i'll get to have a much more invasive exploratory surgery the following day. i'll write more on that once i find out about it.
