Like Cindy, I don't open my eyes during the MRI.  It is loud for sure.  Last time I had the music, and it helped during "quiet" time.  Since I have been W&W for awhile, the MRIs are shorter, and I like that.  When I had a longer time in the MRI once, right in the middle I told them I had to come out.  They pulled me out, and I took some deep breaths, and then they sent me back in.  Helped, and it didn't affect the results.  I think if you need or want Ativan, etc. you should ask for it.  Nancy
