:( God, that's awful. It's making me wonder if they're going to do it to me when I get my next scan. I haven't had one since I was 14 (34 now...), and I was in Virginia then. Doc told me a couple years ago I should probably get a scan sometime soon to confirm everything is okay. It'll either be in Tennessee or South Carolina this time around.

Do they use the mesh one that hardens in place on you?

If you mean the washcloth then no, it's just a normal washcloth that you would use at home. They just lay it over my eyes and I can't see the cage so it's easier to convince myself it's not there.

If you end up getting another one, they say that you shouldn't move at all during the scan and that's not quite true. There are multiple scans and you can quickly adjust in the lul between loud dub step noises. When I'm not sleeping through the scan I'll take those few seconds to adjust and get more comfy. Just some advice. Those spots also might be harder to hear if you listen to music just fyi, I don't.
