We went to a hospital in Xi'an for an MRI to see what is going on in Paula's back to cause her so much discomfort. The MRI machine was made by GE and looked new. Two radiologists who spoke some English operated the machine with two assistants. The verdict - herniated discs that press on the nerves going down her right leg. Hip joints are 'no problem'. The report is in Chinese, but we have the film which is very clear. All this for about one tenth of the cost of an MRI in the US. In fact you could fly to Xi'an, have your MRI and fly back to the US for about the same cost as having an MRI in the US.
