Hot Mama?

Guys, I need your thoughts on something that I don't understand. Within the past 2 months I have had 2 MRIs, an MRA last Friday, a Fluoroscopy and an EKG. Now my watch won't run when I put it on my arm. It runs while it is in the jewelry chest but when I put it on my arm it stops. I had it and the battery tested and it is in perfect operating condition.

Is it possible that I have become so magnetized from the MRIs and MRA that it's making my watch stop? I wasn't wearing any jewelry or other metals when I had the procedures.

Any ideas?

I don't know but I can't wear digital watches for that reason and Analog watches don't last long. I guess it's possible...are you taking meds that increase your iron?

My dad has the same problem. He can wear a Seiko but no luck with other watches.

I used to wear a watch....but now that I've got a cell phone it seems like that thing not only acts as a phone, but it's also a watch, time clock, alarm, calculator, email transmitter, news channel, camera, gps and probably does some other stuff I don't even know about...so I ditched the watch.

My sister whom is no longer with us, God rest her soul, could never wear a watch her entire life. Never mattered the type, cost, quality, nothing she could stop them all.

I never had any trouble until I had the magnetic examinations. Have been wearing this watch for about a year with no problems until now; it's weird. I think I'll go by the Mercedes dealer and see if I will stick to the door of a new ride. lol

Yes. I have also become attracted to deep pockets with lots of green in them.

Magnetism cannot exist without electricity, and vice versa. So even if your watch won't run, on the plus side, you'll be able to jump-start a car with your fingers. And make a light bulb glow by sticking it in your mouth, like Uncle Fester. Great at parties.

Ohhh! Now I get it. I just need to jump start my watch. If magnetism can't exist without electricity why do magnets have both a positive and negative side. Positives hold them together, negatives push them apart. Where is the electrical source? There is no generator. lol

Bug,

Good news is if your are magnetized, you will be a real navigational asset to anyone you fish with. They just have to determine your center of balance to get a good reading of true north. :-)
