Im sure youll be fine. The technicians will talk you through it and you can voice any concerns you have. Earplugs are provided to reduce the noise and youll be required to remain still during the procedure. Id advise you on wearing clothes that have no metal zippers , buttons etc as youll be required to change into a hospital gown otherwise
Best of luck, take a few deep breaths,think nice thoughts and relax  x |

You won't panic, you'll be fine. It's a big machine, there's plenty of room. The hardest part is not moving. I closed my eyes and focused on the sound of the machine. It sounded quite musical to me. Best of luck x |

If you're extremely anxious maybe ask for a little relaxant to help you before you go in. In all honesty you will be well looked after. It's very noisy and yes very confined. Try as much as you can to relax your thoughts and your body. I had a full body one a few years ago and it took quite a bit of time but the staff were amazing and talked to me through the whole procedure. Best of luck with all xx |

I had one last week. Nothing to it, you'll be fine.
As someone said above, close your eyes and relax.
Oh and please remember to take out any piercings you may have. I almost forgot to take out my navel one  |

"God ur lucky was in one on 2 separate occassions last year for over an hour. "
I was only in for about ten mins, it was just my lower back they were looking at. I'd assume the larger the area or the more complex the area, the longer the scan. |

I had two done recently and I was very nervous beforehand as I'm a little claustrophobic. But it went fine in the end, closed my eyes and thought of cock |

Close your eyes and in your head imagine you are singing your favourite song at the top of your voice. I'm a bit clostrophobic and that's how I got through it. |

It was pretty cool to see. |

"Who knows they might be able to prove ive 70% male brain 30% female lol lol "
I think I could have told you that!
Well done to you for getting to where you are now, you are a champion, stand back and take a bow.
I have no doubt you will understand that your medical experience provides you a rare opportunity to serve as a life-lesson for others. Be sure to offer your services to friends or relatives or other forumites!
After a day like today, sometimes just going for a short walk outside can feel like a huge achievement unto itself, even if its raining!
Remember this, consider yourself very lucky to have had this scan, as anyone else who hasn't had it, could be a proverbial ticking time bomb!
You are the lucky one. |
