    Anyone had an MRI or CT?

    I've been dealing with a HORRIBLE headache for several days now. I never get headaches. This is in the back of my head and feels like there is a nail in my brain, all day long. Throbbing. It's killing me and not going away.

    I'm a bit worried it may be a tumor or something, was thinking about going to get an MRI or CT but have never had one, don't know what to expect, if anything.

      Either one is pretty painless, Sometimes they want to use a contrast dye, so that requires an IV. Depending on the machine, MRI can be a bit claustrophobic if tight spaces bother you, but there are some "open" MRI's that work great for claustrophobics.

          yeah my gf had a bad headache the other day that wouldnt go away we went to the er and they gave her a catscan , the dr said sometimes people have headaches and they find something worse off , luckily nothing was wrong but wish you the best. usually they just lay you down on a bed type of thing the machine brings your head in and back out in a matter of seconds and your done.

              A CT is nothing to worry about. My Crohn's Disease has caused me to have at least two dozen CT scans over the years.

              The only thing that I hate about them is that they are essentially a pure profit center for hospitals, which means that they try to order one for every single problem you complain of.

              They say that CT's are one of the few services that keep hospitals in the black.

              Could it possibly be allergies? I am 30 and only started getting allergies two years ago. I feel like I have a nail in my head when my sinuses start acting up.

              The irony is that I used to gloat about how I did not suffer from bad allergies. Karma is a bitch.

                  I had a MRI for the elbow on which I'm in for surgery this week The one I went to was this huge circular machine that comes down on you and is about 3 inches from your whole body.I had to stay still for 45 minutes,I was in considerable pain afterwards but if you moved they would have to do it all over again.hope you get better soon

                              MRI you just basically lay there. It is a pain in the ass because its tight space and it takes a decent amount of time.

                                  mr dr just told me the other day that you should avoid a ct scan if possible. he said they think it may increase your chance of cancer because of the radiation.

                                  but if you have to have then you have to have one.

                                  i had one 2 years ago after a head injury related from an atv accident. it was not a big deal at all.

                                      Definitely not a big deal - the worst part is (as I think someone said) if it's with contrast, if so sometimes they make you drink this crappy shit. Other times they'll inject it via IV. But the only problem is if you're claustrophobic since the space is pretty small inside the machine; otherwise, no biggie.
                                      As far as the headaches - are you seeing a neurologist who specializes in headaches? (Don't know if they have them there.) It can make a *huge* difference in diagnosis.

                                                                      If it is "worse headache of your life" get to an ER asap.
                                                                      MRI is annoying because it is loud and general takes long.
                                                                      CT is easy but with contrast you get IV and can fuckup kidneys.
                                                                      Either can detect problems in brain, if they suspect stroke they'll probably do MRI. CT is bit different views.
                                                                      MRI is magnetic so if you have metal pins or ghetto tats that'll be a problem.
                                                                      CT is like a thousand xrays at once so yes they say to minimize ct scans because of tumor concerns.

I had to lay down and then they pushed a button that put me into the middle of the MRI. Plus it is so damn loud. They gave me headphones to listen to music but the machine is louder than the music. They may also want to use contrast dye. I had headaches like you describe so I had to have it done. Turned out that my headaches were from anxiety and panic attacks.

                                                                          You may have tension headaches. I had those for years and took Fioricet for it. http://www.webmd.com/migraines-heada...sion-headaches and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fioricet

                                                                              CT or MRI will be easy for you if you need it. Basically you lay on your back or side on a narrow table. At the head end of the table the machine forms a wall that is 3 or 4 feet thick. This is where the imaging sensors are. There is a hole in the wall big enough to allow them to move the table and you head first into the machine. There is clearance of several inches to your right and left and above you, but if you are claustrophobic this can make you uneasy. The thing to do is to remind yourself that your feet are sticking out freely and your hands are probably out as well and that you are not restrained physically. Thus if you really panicked you could easily slide yourself back out into the open as needed. This can help comfort the claustrophobia and allow you to stay in the tunnel throughout the exam.

                                                                              CT is a process using X-ray. The machine is not usually very noisy except for some whirring and maybe clicking.

                                                                              MRI uses magnetic energy and a radio frequency. It is noisy inside the tunnel. It sounds a bit like a loud propellor airplane. This is because many small electronic coils inside the machine vibrate a bit with the frequencies they are generating. It is a normal part of the operation of the machine. In response to the oscillating energy given off by the machine, hydrogen atoms in your tissue oscillate at the same frequency and they in turn give off an energy of their own. This energy is read by sensors in the machine and is used to create the images that the doctor will view.

                                                                              They usually slide you into the machine until the area that they want to image is lined up with the sensors. Then, as needed they can move you a few inches farther into or out of the machine to view a larger area.

                                                                              I've had both. MRI does take longer, but if you relax like you are taking a needed nap it's not really so bad.

                                                                                  No IV, lay on a bed, the bed moves into the machine, you don't move a mm for like 40 seconds, bed comes out, done.

                                                                                  No loud noise at all, no ages in a confined space, so don't know what machines you guys use, but this was an enclosed machine, but it didn't feel "small" and it didn't make tons of noise.

                                                                                  Pick up the images the next day of loads of sections of head from top to bottom and no probs. The image of the section where you are at the level of the eyes is freaky funky!

The MRI is a little more stressful if you are claustrophobic. You'll go into a tube and sit there for about 30 minutes while extremely loud banging noises goes on all around you. If you aren't claustrophobic, you'll be fine, but I got a little stressed after about 20 minutes.

For some reason, doctors always think patients are just being hypochondriacs...

I laid down and they stared to "drive" me in.... My head was barely in before I pushed the alarm Tried again, and that time I made it. It is no pain, just noise. You get a headset on with radio or whatever. Once you relax, it is ok, but HELL it was scary at first!

The biggest risk is delaying getting the cause found.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Well, the good news is my brain is fine. The bad news is, right at the base of the scans where they were about to cut off the scan area, they found a cyst about the size of a small finger nail in circumference, in my sinus cavity.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  They were not able to tell if it was just some infection type of cyst filled with puss or if it was cancerous. Since it is not brain related, I have to go back tomorrow to see the eye, ear and throat specialist. They will have to test it to see what it is exactly.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  There is a lot more little details than that, but those are the cliff notes.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Thanks for all of the input on this. I appreciate it. The CT was easy peasy. As Paul had warned me, the only icky part about it was getting the dye injected into my body. It was very cold, like someone was shooting cold water into my arm. Odd sensation.
