Ok, I stand corrected! I can’t even imagine going for 2 hours in one of those!

No, she is just flat out fat. No question about it.

How tight was it? The first couple times I was jammed in the whole way, and it was really tight, but I’ve seen ones where they had adequate space. But when I had the foot done no problem. I just wish they’d let you read.

It has been years but I don’t recall feeling claustrophobic and I think I went in feet first. What I remember clearly was having to be still that long was a challenge. They told me not to sleep so you are left there trying to keep your mind occupied and not think about staying still.

Worst part was that docs were 99% sure on my diagnoses but wouldn’t call it without the full MRI scans.

Food Network did her no service green lighting her cooking show. Maybe it helped save her health to some small degree by cancelling her after 8 episodes. Any blood line of Chuckey is bond to be foul.

“body has too much of the hormone cortisol for a long time,”

Her body has too much of the Schumer gene in it.

I'm just an hour away from my very first MRI. It's an abdominal version to scan liver/gallbladder. With and without contrast. Technically an MRCP. The liver ultrasound scan didn't have sufficient resolution to discern gallstones or potential primary biliary blockage. Time to wrap up my workday day and change into clothes with no metal.

So, she was in a serial comedy. When that failed she tried stand-up comedy. When that failed she got a cooking show. That seems to be failing.

How many failures have to happen before producers/directors/networks say, “No more, loser,”?

“I don’t think she’s ever fasted, from the looks of her.”

Fasts 15 minutes every 2 hours around the clock.

Good luck! Let us know how it went. Hopefully it’s one of the newer one.

I guess you’ll have to take off the chainmail.

A lot of lipstick on Miss Piggy would help.

I would suspect this liberal has too much cortisol in her body because leftists are perpetually outraged and depressed about everything.

Cushing Syndrome causes brittle bones (osteoporosis), moon face and hump back. From her appearance, she has all the symptoms.

She's nobody I pay attention to. Glad she found it, hope it's dealt with effectively.

Somebody on a different (much smaller and more private) Internet venue I follow turned out to have that. Pituitary tumor. It accounted for a lot of nasty and annoying symptoms she was having. Yea, including weight gain.
