Yes, I had one twenty years ago, and I'm surprised they still do them! I had a ruptured disc in my back. The procedure was not bad, but I moved too much, and ate too quickly since I felt so good after the procedure...which was not good. I became nauseated. So...just stay still and don't eat (just like they tell you) for a few hours after the myleogram, and you should be fine. Good luck to you.

I had one in my 30's & would not do it again unless I really desperate. Mine was supposed to help diagnose severe headaches, but gave me more. Have you asked what they might find that they cannot determine with an MRI?
