You can be got out fairly quickly. Remain positive & go in with the attitude that you CAN get through it!! Remember that it's part of a process that is there to help the Drs find out what's wrong with you. Ails x

Hi - I've had 3 in the past year. I pretend I'm lying on a sunbed - LOL!! Seriously, you will have a set of headphones so you can listen to a radio channel of your choice (at least I did where I have mine done) - you will also have a buzzer in your hand so you can buzz the radiographer if you feel a panic attack coming on & you can talk to them & they can talk to you - don't worry!! You'll be fine!! Ails x

Tell the operator of the thing how you feel. I am sure they will have had other people like that. And small children would find it scary I expect, so the operator will know how to deal with you, short of thumping you on the head with a big hammer!
