Hi Lori Jo...If you are claustophobic..I take a washcloth with me to cover my

eyes, so even if I open my eyes, I can't see anything. I just go to sleep, but I

take a xanax before I go too. Also, don't wear any jewelry..(I only wear my

wedding ring). Biggest thing is to relaxxxxxx!

Lori Jo, MRIs are painless but they are really noisey. If they are long

they give me something. It helps me to to ask for a towel to put over my

eyes. I get chlosterphobia way bad. I pray the whole time im in there

too!! You will be fine!!!- Lori:)

- Good Answer, . In all my previous MRI's I told them I didn't

need them even when I heard a little yet long ago. BUT this last one in Oct

after I told the guy I was totally deaf he still put them in my ears. Next

year I am going to boycott the MRI scan if they attempt to put the ear plugs

in again. I am still ticked!!!! They don't listen. I am proud of you

telling them.

Lori and !~

I still use earplugs when noise is excessive. We use large jackammers at

work, and I may not hear it but you can still get a great head ache in a

confined space.
