Can I be blunt and ask if you'd really stop worrying if us unskilled non-medical professionals told you to not worry? I'd suggest going to see a generalist who is permitted to order an MRI and talk through your worries with him/her. Our local MD ordered the MRI for Laura when there was a question in his mind and it was pretty simple to get the MRI, have the radiologist read it, and get the result from the local person without the need to talk to any difficult-to-see specialist. Hopefully, that will dismiss your worries at a time when you already have too much to worry about.
