Symptoms worse straight after MRI

Anyone else experienced that? Usually I don’t feel anything after an MRI, but this time my pre-existing symptoms feel worse. I assume it’ll be fine. But I feel a bit nuts, it was just an MRI!

Lesions shrinking on MRI

Hello, my latest MRI showed a lesion that had schrunk. Does anyone have experience with schrinking lesions? If so, did you do anything to make that happen? I like the idea of them shrinking away... 😉💪 (Sorry for my bad English and maybe my naivety)
