I think this issue is more common than most people know. I had never had an MRI and had no idea what I was in for.
I felt rushed and had ill fitting earplugs provided for me. I was there complaining of ear issues. so it is doubly insulting that I was treated as I was.
After the procedure I developed tinnitus, and hyperacusis. Two conditions I would not wish on my worst enemy.
My tinnitus has varying levels of sound, but the hyperacusis is always a huge problem and has me jumping out of my skin at what is a minor sound to others.
No one seems o know much about either condition. I am more comfortable when I take Klonopin, but of course that is a controlled substance and cannot be taken freely.
