Rhe contrast fluid gives me a burning sensation in my nether regions.

I had one some years ago. Same thing.
The ONLY place it burned was the exit only. And only when they were scanning.

Never had a CAT but recently had an MRI. I was pretty happy with the results. It proved I do have a brain!

Well I was diagnosed with diverticulitis. It sucks, but it is curable. It would certainly explain the abdominal pain and vloating. I have a few days off work to sit on my porch and chill.
Can't do an MRI, but would love to for my hip and back.
The open mri is not bad. The old style gave me a panic attack.
Someone I know noticed some issues they were having, weakness, etc stuff beyond the normal day to day, so they had a endoscopy and a zillion other tests, and finally, a cat scan after no doctor, test, or bloodwork saw anything to explain what was going on. The cat scan sees pretty much everything, where a endoscope doesn't see much beyond some testines. The cat scan revealed pancreatic cancer, and it had spread to various places. About two weeks later they died. If you or someone you know is having issues and getting no answers, you might want to get a cat scan.
"And how we burned in the camps later thinking, what would things have been like, if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain, whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?"
I had a brain/orbital MRI a few weeks ago (with and without contrast) that required 90 minutes. My advice to anyone having an MRI is to ask the technician to let you know from time to time how much time has passed. I am not particularly claustrophobic, but I found the 90 minute MRI to be uncomfortable.

I had a MRI with contrast almost 5 months ago. I'm not claustrophobic but because of the need to stay still and it was going to be long, I just closed my eyes. DAMN those things are loud even with earplugs.
I had my head done due to the sudden inability to taste and smell since LAST January. They said that nothing was found. but my smell is WAY off and taste is non existent.
THEN the VA called me back and said they need to do another one because of "something with the contrast" Which I think is bullshit!!!! They found something and need to see if it got worse 6 months later.
