Brain MRI with and without contrast

I am not a medical professional.
I have had a few MRIs with contrast and I have had no problems.
I think that they are pretty safe. At the MRI, the technicians always ask about allergies, especially to seafood.
The technicians have warned me that the contrast can make you feel weird all over, but that is the normal reaction. I was glad they told me in advance.

Good luck with it!

Robson, why are they having you get a brain MRI? (If you don't mind sharing).
I have low-pressure glaucoma, which means that the pressure is normal but that there is something unusual about the optic nerve. Is that why you are getting the MRI?
Thanks!
