Thanks guys it did go OK. They play this relaxing music in the headphones but it does not work!!
The main thing is keeping still.

I'm glad it went well, Angela. I'm also glad to hear that you are still a fan of the fruit jelly. As for starting a fan club, that sounds like a great idea! Although truth be told, I've recently gone back to an old flame. Or to be more precise, several old flames. I'm still not sure how it all happened. One minute I had a fruit jelly in one hand, and the next minute, I had a Galaxy Ripple, Crunchie and a Mars in the other hand. It's still a mystery! Although once that hand is free again, then I'll get to work on that fan club!

Glad your scan went well


I've had three MRIs. One without contrast dye and two with contrast dye in my blood. I have two cysts in my head (arachnoid and pineal gland). They were found by chance after I was having the first MRI to try and find out why I have lost the hearing in my left ear. Thankfully, I've been told the cysts shouldn't cause any problems and they have nothing to do with the hearing loss. They have no idea what's caused that, so I just have to live with it.

They also found that I was born with a chunk of frontal lobe missing, but, again, it shouldn't affect me as the brain adapts during childhood. Just shows that some of us don't know what we're walking around with until we get scanned for something unrelated. It was scary to get all this news.

I have never been offered music during the scans, only ear-plugs. The noise is pretty loud but bearable. It's hard to keep still when you have anxiety. It's like being inside a big Polo mint
