I had one yearssss ago when my appendix burst. It was alright. The tube thing they put you in a is a little weird.

You will hear periodic electronic noises. Quite cool really.

the noise is fun, I would like to record that sound but they don't let you bring in anything.

Yeah totally not a big deal. Your dick will shrink a good 2 or 3 inches though, don't worry it's only permanent like 40% of the time.

I had several ones, nothing to worry about. It gets a little loud but you get earmuffs for that.

If it's too loud, you're too old.

MRI, not a big deal. I fell asleep getting my shoulder looked at.

This worked out for me. Tripping over your dick gets old FAST.

It's just like being sealed in a coffin and buried alive. No biggie.

Make sure you get comfortable in there before it starts. I had to get some full-body mris and I moved, so they had to start over. Granted, I moved because I was in excruciating pain, but they gave me some pillows which helped and then I passed out and woke up when it was over.

Somewhere between these two. I kinda freaked out a little the first time I had one, the 2nd time was OK.

I had one last year. I thought the noise in there was pretty relaxing. Though the urge to scratch my nuts hit me IMMEDIATELY after they started.
