My doctor wants to me to get an MRI of my head but besides not being able to pay for it, I really hat them! It is just too cramped. I am no stranger to MRI`s, I have had 11 CT scans, 2 HIDA scans and 4 MRI`s in the past 3 years but they didn`t involve my gourd...... I had one on my head in 2006, and I freaked out. They couldn`t get me out of that thing fast enough, when it was done. My doctor thinks there is something going on up there though because of my stuttering, memory loss and nerve problems that have developed. I am on valium but I don`t think it could calm me down enough. Anybody else dread this kind of MRI???
