How do I get a doctor to give me a full body MRI just so I can get an idea of what's going on inside of me? I've tried 4 different doctors this week and they all refuse to give me a MRI no matter what I say or do, even if I offer to pay cash in full in advance. Why? What is wrong with these fucking imbeciles? Do they not like money? MRIs are literally completely harmless, the only harm would be to my wallet and that's my choice, so what's the problem here exactly? The doctors just say it's "bad medicine" and refuse no matter what I say, then try to rush me out the door. They all try to gaslight me with outrageous claims like that an MRI is guaranteed to not show anything worth looking at, I'd need a CT scan for that. Oh really? Then why do MRI scans exist at all, wise guy? What's most absurd and frightening is that the last doctor I saw refused to do an MRI on the grounds that it exposes me to "dangerous radiation", even though an MRI uses ZERO RADIATION. Then by the end of the visit, she insisted I get a CT scan WHICH EXPOSES YOU TO RADIATION, and refused to let me get an MRI, without seeing the absurdity of the sequence of statements she made. The level of FUCKING STUPID one has to be for their train of thought to go down this path defies comprehension. I'm tired of trying to get these braindead NPCs to agree to my simple request for a harmless procedure. I need a REAL solution NOW. If any of you can connect me to someone who will actually do an MRI for me then I'll pay you a finder's fee of $1000 USD after the scan is complete. I live in Michigan. Sorry if this is the wrong board for this

geez, you're pretty autistic.
You should get your Munchausen syndrome checked out.
it's good of your doctors not to give in to your autistic demands
Ask an imaging center directly for non-medical scientific curiosity/personal/artistic use.
I'll try this, thank you
Way to enable the hypochondriac.
Eat a dick, cunt.
Listen dude, I think I know what you're going through, I've dealt with the same (not gonna go into it) but just relax and hear me out.
>bad medicine
It's true. First, every scan and reading are accounted for in the healthcare universe, including who authorized them. Authorization requires following a protocol. A doctor will be judged for every single decision. Second, many if not most perfectly healthy people will have incidental findings on their full body scans, which can lead you down an unnecessary and harmful path that will decrease your quality of life.
If you're thinking, "no, if i know i'm fine then i'll calm back down and go on with my life". That doesn't happen for people who have somatic symptom disorder, or related illness. The only thing I can suggest to you is take note of your symptoms and concerns, see a doctor again and communicate as calmly as possible what you're experiencing. If you get the same answer then recount all of your experiences and maybe think about seeing a psychiatrist (stigma be damned). It's frightening how much actual physical symptoms can be affected by our heads.
>incidental findings are bad to come across
>having concrete information is bad and harmful
>staying as ignorant as possible is good
>i had imaginary problems once, therefore everyone's problems are imaginary
You are out of your fucking mind. You are extremely fucked in the head and an utterly toxic and vile human being. Stay the FUCK out of my thread.
