Elevated symptoms

Has anyone had elevated symptoms after an mri? I feel as though since my mri, my symptoms are x10.

selmaS is wise.  Fwiw I have to warn MRI technicians that certain positions agrivate my CMI issues.  Usualy they try to accomidate me anyway they can; they just often don't think about what certain positions do to a person with neuro issues.

The sound wasn't so bad because of the ear plugs, i actally fell asleep, and yes they did use a contrast. I'll be sure to let the dr know. Thanks!

  Hi...yes, some due to the sound, stress and  the contrast if used can cause the symptoms to increase.....sometimes it is the position...

  DO u normally have positional issues?..sound issues?

  I know stress can affect all of us, so that is a given...so not sure if u get stressed by the MRI...did they use a contrast dye?...if so, u may have an allergy...do let ur Dr know how u r feeling.
