  • Had an MRI this morning, first time. I knew it was going to be an uncomfortable experience but I wasn't expecting to feel completely stoned afterwards. Had to sit in the car for 20 minutes before I felt capable of driving home and even now I still feel a bit spacey. Might have a nap.

    • I hope you get a good outcome me matey 🫂

    • Were you medicated?

    • Jaysus, didn't they tell you to have someone come pick you up or drive you home? Not very responsible of the MRI provider I think. And bloody dangerous if you are going to be driving.

    • Had one on my head when I had chronic migraines. Felt wack af after too.

      On the other hand, I had one done on my ankle and was okay after. 🤷‍♀️

      • Did they identify a cause of the migraines? It was my head and neck, took about 20mins

        • Nothing in my head; theory is that the migraines were caused by psychological stress (was with my abusive ex at the time, and mum was just diagnosed with schizophrenia and refusing meds). My MRI and CAT scan were both clear, and the migraines cleared up when I left ex and mum haha

          MRIs are so cool tbh, but I always freak out a little and ask the nurses if I've taken out all my piercings in case I missed one haha

    • When I had my shoulder done a few years ago the sound was incredible.
