Hi Brenda
I'm sure it will be fine, but you MUST tell the technicians about it. I just had one with a low back full of metal, and it was fine.

I am the "queen" of claustrophobia. I had to take an ativan to go see my family doctor to talk to her about having an MRI.

I got through it. I sedated myself (with my doctor's blessing). I had the MRI on a Thursday afternoon, slept all of Thursday evening, most of Friday, and was "sort of" awake by Saturday morning. But...........they could have left me in that horrible little white tube forever.......I opened my eyes, I smiled, I hummed.....didn't have a care in the world. There's a way to get through it if you need to have one. I dreaded it for years....always said I could never do it........but with the proper "drugs" and someone to drive you home, it is doable.
