In the last two weeks I ve had a CT scan, Brain MRI, 3 treatments of Solu Medrol. On Wed of this week I had a spinal tap, so of course I m sore and tired and today (Friday) I went in for Spinal MRI. They tried it twice and each time it started I got very cold and clamy. I felt like I was going to vomit. They discontinued the MRI since my body couldn t take anymore. I wasn t stressed about the MRI today, so I don t think it was due to anxiety. I had MRI last week of my brain and I was completely fine. After today s attempt at getting the spine MRI, I went to my car to leave and I ended up vomiting. I ve felt nauseated all day and now I m burning up with fever. Should I be worried? If I m still feverish tomorrow, should I see a Dr.? Thank you for your advice
I read your question carefully, and I understand your concern. It is puzzling though, I have never encountered any report of such effects of MRI and furthermore there is no reason for the MRI to cause any of those symptoms, it's a harmless exam, doesn't carry any sort of radiation. So I think it must be a coincidence you must have some infection causing the fever, nausea and vomiting which is manifesting its symptoms. I hope to have been of help.
