This is sound advice! Once again, I’m grateful I don’t need a patch or a pacemaker!

Thanks. I’ll be sure to let my sister know – she uses all the patches available at once. From diet to nicotine ones. If she got into MRI she’d be toast.

Never really used a patch of any kind…. but it’s a good warning!

Well, you have to be thinking all the time, don’t you? One thing can cause something else… I was never a smoker. Have no patches on my body. Except for sun spots, etc.

Mary Anne- yes that is important too and would be on the information your doctor sends with you for the MRI, that’s an implantable device in your body. This is different because it’s a medication and it’s been discovered by the FDA that not all of them carry the MRI warning.
Mike – you’re welcome, thanks for stopping in.

Thanks Elaine for this advice, also be sure to tell him if you have a pacemaker, or any metal other metal objects in side that have been placed there by a doctor for what ever reason……
