I would rather an MRI than a lower GI or even a colonoscopy...

Yeah mine was an open MRI I spose. It was this big round thing made by Hitatchi..

I swear to god it rattled all my teeth loose LOL

Oh there was one funny thing.. So the music comes on and Social Distortion's 'Story of my life' comes on. So Im laying there singing my lungs out and the machine kicks in.

I mustve lept about 4 inches up off the plate I was laying on. I wasnt expecting it and the b**** nurse didnt tell me it was coming.

Good thing I didnt have the shits anymore like the day before, or I think I would have spackled the MRI machine

MRI's aren't bad?

WTF ever.

My first one was horrifying. Imagine stuffing my 270 pound frame into a KOREAN MRI machine. I felt like a photon torpedo being stuffed in a launch tube. My shoulders were all pushed in, stomach hitting the top, can't even focus my eyes because it's so small. And my luck, I had headphones, but they were the kind you use on the airlines that have vaccum hoses and I could bearly hear the beach boys they were playing over it.

For 45 minutes.

*Shudder*


Thanks Jeremy.. I havent got much to laugh about at the moment but that post had me in stitches fing02.gif

Yeah mine was definitely open, and it was the same Hitatchi unit I laid under.

There's a bloody laser that says "DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY INTO THIS BLOODY LASER !!!oneone" but I had no friggin choice because of the position I was laying under it.

So I had to close my eyes. Nearly fell asleep a couple of times then the f***ing frequency of the magnets would change again and scare total shit out of me owned.gif
