This morning, in lieu of work, I had a brain MRI, CT scan, and injections.
Some days I welcome the break from work, because I get a chance to nap during scans, and I get time after scans to pick up prescriptions in the afternoon.
Brain scans last about 45 minutes - 1 hour. The techs put a cage on my head so I won't move around which normally doesn't faze me at all. Today, though, something weird happend during my MRI.
I kinda lost my cool. I suddenly felt trapped and needed to get out. I had to force myself to calm down, because I REALLY didn't want to be put in another tube again today. I calmed myself down several times during the last part of the scan.
Once I was finally out of that tube, I felt so much better.
After a mid-afternoon nap, better even still.
Thank goodness I don't have another MRI until May.
