I've had a ton of MRI's done. I have a cranial cyst (next to my pituitary gland, in my brain), which for a while, needed to be checked every 6 months, and then yearly. Now, since no change has been noted, I only need it checked if I notice any problems.
MRI's are a piece of cake. They'll probably tell you not to wear any makeup or put any styling agents into your hair, so you get to look "un-made", but they try to keep you as comfortable as possible. Just close your eyes and listen to your music... a lot of places allow you to bring your own cd's.
The machine itself can get pretty loud and even sound kind of crazy at times... just try to ignore it.
I'm sure you'll do just fine. Keep us posted on what they tell you!!!
