Just a few questions really, the letter says that I will be in the scanner for between 45-60 mins, I am not claustrophobic so think I will be ok, but just really wanted to know from anyone who has had one what it is really like.
It also says that I have to wear something that contains no metal at all, so no zips, clips, buttons or anything, and if not I will be given a gown, I am thinking that I don't really have anything suitable, so was wondering what you wore, and if it was just a gown.
Also did you have to get a dye injection? It says I may or may not need to get this, is it just a basic injection if I do?
and finally it says I can bring an MP3 player if I want, was just wondering how this works if you are in a big magnetic tunnel, as I have the fear of using my iphone and it getting ruined
Anything else that you think might be useful, I would really appreciate you sharing.
Thanks
