After your scan, you may feel tired or experience a headache, which is common due to the mental strain and stress of the scan. The lights and noises of the machinery can also contribute to this. If you had an MRI with contrast, you may experience symptoms like nausea or itching at the injection site. If these symptoms persist, contact your doctor. Your MRI results will be sent to your doctor, who will discuss them with you within 3-7 business days.
