Update 9/7/22 Post-Procedure:
The neck MRI order didn't get faxed to the hospital, so only the shoulder MRI got done. They put me out before inserting me into the MRI tube, then woke me up after removing me. Their pain management was *vastly* improved over the last time they put me under for a similar procedure. I didn't exceed pain level 8.5 the entire time, although it took 2mg IV of Dilaudid to knock down the pain once I was in the recovery room.
