Second MRI
So I’ve 1 brain MRI and it was horrendous and not sure I can go through another, but I’ve just had my date through today for a brain and spine MRI. I suffer massively with claustrophobia and just wondered if anyone had any tips on how to get through this as they have said they can’t give me a sedative or anything. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Hello...I had my first MRI which was for brain and spine and was getting myself in a right pickle as I'm claustrophobic like yourself...the guys were so sympathetic with me...what helped me was one of them gave me a eye mask to put on which was so much better...
Everything bang the machine makes and every further inch you go in are all extra steps towards managing the MS with the brilliant technology and drugs we have nowadays which are free on the NHS. Try and focus on reminding yourself of this every second and that you can come out at any time by pressing the button.
