The Breast MRI is the worse- only way to get thru it is Xanax, otherwise I have panic attacks. (Just had another one this week)

I was given Ativan (Lorazepam). It really helped!! 6 years ago they gave me Valium. All it did was make me a sobbing mess!! I could not go through with it. Lucky nothing serious came up. I've used Lorazepam 3x so far and fell like I slept through it!! Best of luck to you. Do whatever it takes to help with the MRI.
