    I had a head MRI scan and I just went straight into the machine, no injections. It's completely painless and you have a button to communicate with the operator if you're finding it oppressive, who can then stop it. I nearly fell asleep!

    You'll be fine

    Hiya butterfly00 sorry you found it terrifying what part was it that made you feel like that?

    I had a head mri several months ago and found it okish just then entering the machine was a bit freaky. Also have to have a neck mri next week friday the 13th LOL. My first was with dye but i think the next is without.
