Let’s see a show of hands of who has witnessed a claustrophobic event in an MRI?
Yes. If that event was you, it counts.
Keep those hands up.
Now, how many have witnessed an actual faker trying to get meds?
I have seen both types, multiple times.
Both are very real with serious consequences.

Are you saying people fake illness so they can get have an MRI ordered so they can get a Valium? If so, I find that hard to believe. That’s a lot of effort to go to to get a pill or two.
Or are you saying people ask for a Xanax or Valium when they don’t need it for claustrophobia?
In this case, so what? It’s not like they’re shooting heroin, it’s a Xanax for Pete’s sake. What are the serious consequences?
In my opinion everyone who thinks they might become claustrophobic should take the pill and not risk aborting a necessary test and wasting a bunch of time.
