Morning, this helps me every time. I have a pituitary tumor and have for 25+ years so every two years a need a brain mri. Before I go into the room I talk to the tech and tell her I suffer tinnitus and anxiety so it makes it easier for me for them to speak to me saying next test joanne 30 seconds, next test joanne 1 minute, throughout the entire 55 minutes. They even say 15 minutes in Joanne, 30 minutes in Joanne. I also close my eyes as soon as I lay on the table to get in the zone. I can’t have music directly in my ear with tinnitus but it’s typically an option.
Works every time. When I’m done I stop at the park and I walk for about 15 minutes. I need the open space and fresh air. Try it, it might be helpful.
Blessings,
Joanne
