I'm going because of this pulsatile tinnitus that I've had on and off for the last month.

I am really hoping she will say it's due to blocked ears (had bad sinus infection in December) and that I just need antibiotics. If she says I need an MRI, I think I will crap myself. :weep:

I'm sure you will be fine! I have had an MRI twice and it's over within about 15 minutes. Let us know the good news!

Thank you Jay :)

Man, the thought of being in that metal tube makes me feel really panicky! What was your MRI for?

Hi, I was all in a panic for my mri. No need really was over and done with in no time and that was with contrast.

I had spinning sensations in my head (still do) and had an MRI to rule out anything bad. The last time I went they also played music in there I think you can take your own music CD.

Hello, back now. Doctor looked in my ear and said "It's quite dull" which I think is to do with my blocked tubes/sinuses and she said she isn't concerned about it and even better, she has it too!

:D

:blush: Oh that makes it sound like I'm happy about my doctor having tinnitus. I'm not, obviously! :D
