Claustrophobic

I dreamed that I had to have an MRI because there was a suspect for brain cancer (never had any form of cancer so I'm not sure why I was dreaming this). I had to have an MRI where I work. I went inside and I think I was being scanned by either my old boss Dave or another guy I worked with while doing clinicals in the town closest to me, not neither of them knew how to use our machine. I had two friends with me but I had NO idea who they were. It felt like I met them on the street and got to know them for 10 minutes. I had to sit down in the chair with a neck halo behind me which was strange. They put the helmet FRONT around the front of my face and somehow made it stay attached to the halo behind me (it's impossible to do but dreams, amiright?). I started sliding down but the floor wasn't where it usually was so I let my legs slip down below floor level. I was trying not to move so somehow I didn't notice the floor slid close to my chest and was at chest level and somehow I slid at an angle and was partially pushed underneath a circular wall to my right. "I'm not feeling too good, this doesn't feel right," I told the technologist hesitantly because I didn't WANT to seem like a know-it-all. He stared at me for a moment trying to see if he could help me as my "friends" left so I said, "Can you bring me out so we can figure this out?" I slide up and out and look at the set up (somehow it was like being buried up to my neck?) and its like someone totally clueless to MRI set me up and I show that the chair started sliding down at an angle so the technologist "fixed" it by spinning the chair a little. He said j have to go back in but I REALLY didn't want to because he OBVIOUSLY didn't know how to do MRIs, so I woke up in a panic.
