Napkin Notes: Sinuses & CT Scan

I feel like a character in a scifi horror movie.  Namely, the one who comes back from a routine jaunt on the surface of an alien planet feeling fine and dandy, only to realize hours later that she has been somehow mysteriously mutated by alien DNA or impregnated with a terrifying little pod baby. After two courses of antibiotics for a sinus infection, I am still having pressure headaches in my face and head most of the day (worse at night). ... At any rate, we’re at the part of the movie where the audience finally finds out what’s going on.  At least I hope we are.  Dr. B scheduled me for a CT scan of my sinuses today/Katrina, Notes on a Napkin. More here.

Question: Have you ever had a CT scan? Did you feel claustrophobic?
