Avatar n tn My doctor ordered a head scan with contrast. When I went, they did a scan without contrast then told me they were not going to do the one with contrast. Is that because everything looked normal or because they could already see an abnormality so didn't need to use the contrast?

Avatar n tn Hi guys I wanted to know if anyone knows where to get a private head MRI scan done in the Birmingham region. I've been suffering from this head related illness for almost 2 years and the doctor thinks it's depression which I disagree because the only thing that gets me depressed is the problem itself I'm suffering from.

Avatar f tn Eight weeks ago I got a weird head sensation - first came electrical sounds like the crackling of a faulty circuit, followed by a sensation of the inside of my head rising up towards top of head (just once), followed by brief dizziness. I don't think the whole experience lasted more than a minute. I felt okay afterwards. Two weeks later I was still wondering what had happened so I discussed with my GP who was concerned and she referred me to a neurologist.
Avatar f tn Yes I get these weird feelings in left side of my head but I can handle that if I know it is nothing serious. My friend who is a GP has said to me throughout these awful months of worrying that it is very likely the MRI would not be able to explain it. Fingers crossed I will get the same result as you come Jan or feb next year.
Avatar m tn It came out of on nowhere 2 months ago i was working away at my desk and i felt this pressure kind of feeling on top of my head in that one tiny spot top left of my head its like the size of a quarter. It has been on and off every day for two months sometimes it hurts but only for a second and the pain isnt severe but i notice its there and its annoying and due to my anxiety problems you can guess what goes through my mind>Any comments are greatly appreciated thank you.
Avatar m tn Hi, Thank you for your question. For persistent headaches, possibilities like migrainous, cluster, tension, pinched nerve in cervical spine and refractive errors that need to be evaluated thoroughly with the help of a neurologist here. Migraine like headache can be throbbing, one sided of face & head and preceded by aura (starts with blurred vision). Cluster headache may appear as burning, explosive in nature and tear appears from eyes.

Avatar f tn He was given an MRI scan and various other tests. The MRI scan was reported as normal. Can a head trauma of 6 years ago show up in an MRI scan? I should also say that he has a crack in his forhead where he fell and when he laughs it is visible. When you stroke his head you can feel the dent. I have added a piccie of his head it was taken about a 2/3 weeks after his fall.
Avatar n tn I indeed have suffered from auras and migraine and now feel a lot less worried about the presence of plaques on the mri scan of my brain. Thank you for being very helpful.
Avatar f tn Hi, It's 4:00 in the morning and I couldn't sleep because of the pressure,tenderness and throbbing in the top of my head. It"s painful to touch the top of my head and little hair bumps top up sometimes. it's worst today then before. I have a bald spot in the top of head also. I am under a lot of stress working two jobs and single. I don't know if this is a sign of going thru the change or not but I'll really concern.
Avatar f tn ve had this weird pressure in the back of my head and feeling dizzy and lightheaded. I feel it a lot when I close my eyes and when I open them nothing is spinning! I'm always nauseous and because of all this I've had an increase in anxiety as well. I've been to the ER twice and seen my GP more times that I can count and have no answer. It's ruining my life, I feel faint all the time, I've lost weight. I take .
13766472 tn?1431393364 I have been having horrible headaches on the side of my head and bottom of the back of my skull. This is why the scan was done.
Avatar n tn However, I still have significant head pain at the back of my head. It could be described as a good deal of pressure at the back of my head that intensifies when I strain. When I walk, the impact of my feet on the ground makes my head and teeth hurt...I can no longer exercise due to this and the quality of my life has been greatly affected by all this. I have constant head pain...The worse part is...no one can give me an explanation for this....
Avatar f tn Of course any amount of radiation to an unborn child is a risk but if its just an MRI of your head and not a full body scan or even one of your lower limbs you should be in the clear.
Avatar n tn Does it scan the brain only or other parts of the head under the brain?? As in does it scan the areas above the neck inside the head below the brain.... Appreciate advice from someone who has done an MRI scan before....
Avatar m tn 5 year old son has had left hemiplegia for the last year that has not got worse, he went for an MRI last week which shows a 5x5cm mass of unknown nature, (possibly a grade 2 astrocytoma) deep in his right Parital lobe, which is pushing his right side over to the left, he has no other symptoms such as sickness, dizziness or fits which they would expect to see with a tumour of this size, they have also said it could be a anterior choroidal infarct / stroke is it possible that such a mass could of
Avatar n tn My spouse was attacked by men with baseball bats on August 16th of this year, they split his scalp wide open he had 40 staples, and 200 plus stitches. has had a headache since, underwent an ekg, and now is scheduled for an MRI. I am very concerned because since he was attacked he keeps passing out sometimes more than once a day, and has constantly been complaining of a headache, and feeling extremely tired.
Avatar n tn Hi i had an MRI today as i keep feeling really tired and dizzy, this has been going on 4 months. During the MRI a pressure built up inside my head and and eyes it felt like my head was going to explode. I am not a wimp by nature but i had to push the emergency button to stop the scan. This was the last scan and i was only 40 secs away from completion. I looked on search engines and this seems like an unusual MRI experiance can anyone shed light???
Avatar m tn ve been tested for MS and some other conditions that have all come up negative. I have my MRI and am waiting to see the results of it. I know none of you are doctors but I would love to hear any of your opinions/thoughts. Thank you in advance and this forum is very great and has been so informative so far. http://postimg.
Avatar f tn I had an anuerysm in January and survived it with no apparent scars other than the scar from the crainotomy. I am experiencing head and ear pressure. It fills as if my head is going to explode. It last for a few minutes then goes away. I am also experiencing ringing in the ears, left eye twitching and sluggish walking. Could this be because of the subarachnoid hemorrahage? I had a cat scan in March, it showed no signs of water on the brain.
