Do you have a coping mechanism to get through an MRI?

I get yearly MRIs of my brain and spine due to MS and a bout of Transverse Myelitis.

I learned it’s a lot easier to wear a soft eye mask (no metal) to make sure I didn’t open my eyes.

With that measure in place, I nearly fall asleep during MRIs now.

I have done the same. I wear a soft eye mask for an MRI, and it has worked out well for me.
