Yep, I'd jump on that MRI. Tell them to play some upbeat music. Last MRI I had, she pulled me out halfway through because I didn't respond when she asked if I was OK. I told her to play classical music, and I was sound asleep. 😁

Best wishes for nothing found!

Well, yes, let me chime in and agree that the MRI makes perfect sense!
Having said that, when I had mine recently, the tech very considerately rolled up a pair of foam earplugs for me to insert, as the noise the machine produces is really quite loud! I'm not sure that music head/earphones would suffice.
For me, it was an interesting combination of moving, mechanical and electronic noises, and I treated it as a sort of strange, electo-mechanical sound bath, if that makes sense.
It really was, as commented, a "piece of cake", but then I, too, don't suffer from claustophobia.
Get the scan!!
