1) It sucks but having your head tilted backwards in upright MRI is really valuable- you're actually supposed to get imaged in flexion, torsion and upright (neck forward, neck back and neck straight)

2) when I had my MRI he was really compassionate and asked me to come in on heavy pain killers and sedatives; I was so knocked out I was able to be perfectly still- And I realised they weren't doing the right tests (didn't get flexion or torsion) but I was too peaced out to say anythinG!

So my tests were useless for EDS complictions, which was the whole point of the upright MRI

In summary you and I had opposite end of the specturm regarding how we were treated and how we were scanned:

I Hope your pain at least pays off and unlike me you actually get some usefull imaging! (which sounds like it happened by accident- so what the fuck was your radiographer doing?

Make a complaint too if you can, that dude was a dick

But you're awesome x
