MRI Scanner problem?

I recently had another MRI for a leg problem, and barely fitted in the thing! I couldn’t lie flat on my back! And came out feeling that I never want another unless I lose half my body weight and have my breasts removed. But here’s the problem I think my MS is getting worse! And the only realistic way to tell is another blinking MRI.

What am I supposed to do

I’m not sure but I think some hospitals have what is called an ‘open scanner’. Don’t know anything about them other than they can be useful for people who suffer badly from claustrophobia.

I don’t like the MRI scans - even for a fairly slim guy I do feel as if I’m in a small, narrow tube
