"MRI SCAN"

About: Royal Bolton Hospital

Hi, I recently had to have a scan on my cervical spine, and I am very claustrophobic, I arrived very early for this scan with the idea that I may not have gone through with it. I was met with a very helpfull nurse who pursueded me to try, she put me at my ease and explained what was going to happen and just asked me to try it. I can only say a big thank you to this lady as the experience was not as bad as I had expected .For anyone who suffers with claustrophobia I can honestly say just give it a go and hopefully you will get the same care as I did. Thanks again.

Most people are anxious about the unknown and the anticipation can be very difficult. We're pleased to hear that you were put at your ease and the experience was nto as bad as you had expected. Thank you for posting this. We will share your comments with the staff.
