Hard to do that without an MRI.
It was the fact that they shoved all four MRI's together for a single session because of scheduling due to ****ing insurance bullshit. Four hours in the tube was a chore.
With about 50 minutes left, I got a cramp in my right leg, my lower back was on fire from laying on that ****ing plastic slab for three hours and my nose started itching. And the beauty of it is, you can't move or you **** up the whole MRI and they have to restart. I was out of my ****ing mind by the end of it.

I had a biking accident in 2007 in which I tore an MCL and spent about 90 minutes in an MRI tube. I fell asleep.
I have a good friend that had breast cancer and a subsequent double mastectomy that spent nearly 3 hours, not once, but twice.
It sucks but hopefully that's the worst of it. Hang in there, Dude!
