You'll be fine. An MRI isn't that difficult to go through.

That said, *HUGS*

Good luck, GLA!

Promise yourself a treat afterwards. When I have to have some nasty procedure done, I always get a chocolate milkshake afterwards. Mmmm!

You know what helped me....

I've had the great misfortune of having had several MRI's over the course of my life. I also never knew I had claustrophobia issues until going into an MRI tube. Wowza, that's a tight little space!

Anyhow, the last time, they offered to put a cloth over my eyes and for as ridiculous as it sounds, it really helped.

If they don't do that, keep your eyes closed and focus on your breathing.

Piece of cake.

Just close your eyes, and listen to the drum beats of the naked natives dancing in a circle around you.

Of course the thumping sounds were something different on the day I went.

I wasn't going to say claustrophobia, but somebody beat me to it. I'd definitely need to be sedated.

Let us know how you are.

Re: OT- Mikey's having an MRI this afternoon...

I've had to have a lot of MRI's with my cancer and seizers. I am extremely claustrophobic and I couldn't have done it without those great little pills that totally calm you gown.

Good luck GLA.
