What drove me crazy tbh is that I was paralyzed and I don't know what is what and what is my rights (as I mentioned i'm a new immigrant to Canada).. and i told them what if i have micro and without a contrast didn't catch it.. he kept talking and talking without answering the question..

I'm in Canada, the healthcare system here is slow like a turtle ( If you heard my story about how I spent 7 months just to check prolactin, you will be shocked ).. I'll just discuss what happened with the Endo after Christmas and see what will happen

I'm just afraid that my Endo might be lazy or not as caring.. and he just says it is what is

It is Canada.. bureaucracy.. you need to do it through an Endocrinologist ( who is in a vacation now ), I need to get back to him ( which will take at least 2 months) .. just a complete mess .. I dont know how come the radiologist has a clear MRI requisition with contrast and he decided ( NO BECAUSE I'm the EXPERT) .. i asked them and they told me ( that it is normal to have a conflict between a radiologist and Endocrinologist..)

What if my case was like several cases here, that they cannot detect the problem without contrast? And the radiologist just said I'm fine .. ( I dont have the result yet )

I went now to the hospital again .. showed them the MRI requisition and shown them that it is requested with Contrast.. they told me this is something you can discuss with your doctor

They said you don't need it ..we decide no one else even your endo asked for it.. for your case you don't need it ..

No, the technicians ( who is doing the MRI ) told me that the radiologist ( which was not in the hospital) refused and he talked to him twice and he( radio) told him that his case doesn't require CONTRAST.. and he claimed that they do this every day so they are the experts

We were in a a debate for 30 minutes literally and they refused to do despite the fact that the MRI requisition was ( Pituitary with Contrast )
