Chemo delayed for clinical trial

I had a situation with my MRI-guided biopsy last year in which they did not check to be sure the MRI computer was working after a 2 day hospital wide computer outage. They put the IV in, got me on the table and into the machine and I laid there waiting in great pain for a long time before they admitted that the computer wasn't working. Whole process had to be repeated days later. I ended up phoning Patient Relations to personally share my experience and dissatisfaction. I felt much more empowered by doing that and I felt seen and heard as a result of the conversation. Now I ask if computers are working every time I go for an MRI.

Wow what an awful experience. The pain is awful but so is the feeling that we don't matter. Anyway, thank you so much for letting me know. The things you don't even think to ask, or think you need to ask! But I will certainly ask from now on. I can't believe that happened to you. So gruesome!
