I fell asleep while getting a MRI

[Raggedy-Ann]

MRI machines are loud. If you've been inside one you know there are some freaky noises and you swear it is breaking down. I am claustrophobic too, big time ANXIETY! This time I had to go in face down. I know from experience to pull my mask under my chin and make sure I can breathe. I was in a panic as the table moved me inside. The technician put on the headphones and I requested classical music. I had to hold perfectly still. I tried to go to my happy place but instead I turned off. 45 min later I felt the table move and she pulled the headphones off. I was confused. I couldn't indulge fight or flight so my brain went to play dead.

Your session lasted 45 minutes. That’s awesome you fell asleep. Not many can. I pretend it’s a tanning bed and shut my eyes before I go in. I get my brain tuned into the rhythm of the noise and think of a tropical paradise and drop off to sleep. Ear plugs of course. They help a bit.

Wow, you are amazing!!!! I went in w 2 Ativan and they didn't even touch me, I was so anxious I was climbing the walls, almost had to reschedule. Wow again, you did great... I hope the test results come back good for you...

That's pretty cool you could do that. My sister IG can fall asleep in one of those.

When I had mine done, I didn't get any music just ear plugs and stuffy around my music. No music for me except for the one that plays in my head 😂

The noises reminded me of EDM dance hall or house party music. So I grooved to it 😂
