[QUOTE="slsh, post: 362995, member: 8"] Interesting article. I've been saying "no" to MRI/CT scans for Boo for several years now. Every time he has a seizure, ER doctors want to scan his head (again). The kid has already got the most well-mapped brain in IL, LOL. Thankfully, his neuro backs me up on this, but it sure does tick some ER doctors off when I refuse. I actually had one tell me they had to rule out a brain tumor! I told him to get the neuro on the phone and I'd discuss it with *him*. I think some of the testing is CYA on the parts of doctors and hospitals. [/QUOTE]
