The place where I always have mine scheduled has two MRI machines, one of them is a mobile one. I didn't object when they asked me if it was OK to use that one. I didn't know that the building wasn't well insulated and it didn't have capabilities for music. So I was all on my own. I was glad that I dressed with sweatpants.

I am glad to hear you had a good expirience.

I have had MRI's in a closed machine, open flair, sitting up, does not matter, I have an anxiety attack! Medicated or not, panic! I can feel my palms starting to sweat just thinking about it!

The problem is, not so much the machine. Sitting up is wonderful however, no matter what, they enclose my head and that means anxiety of the panic variety every time. Plus, I cannot see a dang thing without my glasses on. That just adds to the freaking out.
Continue the good work.

Big thumbs up and a pat on the back for participating in the research!

Good for you!!

I'm not claustrophobic so it's never bothered me. My Neuro only uses one imaging location and it's a closed MRI so I don't really have a choice. I just close my eyes and could just about go to sleep (even through all the banging and clanging) except for the technician interrupting with "are you still doing OK?"!!
