Carolyn - I'm in the San Francisco - my docs are associated with
Stanford. My GP always sends me annotated copies of any reports, so I
have read my latest MRI results. I won't be able to talk to the
neurologist until next Weds. (my schedule conflicts, not his), but the
radiologist report was pretty clear. Reading the book mentioned in the
comments going back and forth can help. I have stopped "freaking" as
much, and am now just gathering as much info as I can.....
