MRI Appointment
Posted December 26, 2010
on:This was my first MRI scan and I was actually nervous because people told me to expect different things. Your entire body will be inside a humming tube. It’s gonna be freezing. The machine is very loud. You’ll be injected with a substance so the machine can read you. Yada yada yada.
If I could pick my favorite part about this experience, I would choose my MRI scan because it was painless and actually relaxing. I was escorted to a small room with the machine and told to lie down with my right knee positioned on a certain spot. The technician covered me with a blanket and told me not to move. For 10 minutes or so, I was relaxed. Only my knee, not body, was placed under the machine. The machine made noise but it wasn’t loud; the sounds were simply clicks.
I fell asleep during the scan but I felt very refreshed when the technician woke me up! I would return in 2 days for my results.
