Hi all,

Of course, a MRI is not adviced when you have EHS. I have read story's from people about doing a MRI with EHS that couldn't do anything for months.
But, I have this situation with my knee. After an accident on the racing bike (car drove me) I got slowly knee problems. The knee problems are now so bad that I have to do something about it. The physiotherapist says that it is most likely a fracture in the meniscus. An MRI should provide more information about it.

I am really scared for that MRI with my EHS, MCS, Fibro, heavy metals and CFS.

So I wonder if there is something I can do to decrease the MRI effect on the EHS?

Any help/tips is much appreciated, thanks in advance.

I have very little knowledge in this area.
Is there any way you could handle a CT scan or other type of scan?

Hi,
Unfortunately a CT scan gives no picture of the status of the meniscus.
Thanks for thinking with me.
