I have had to do a few of them!. They really are not that bad!. The trick is try not to think about it!. It is loud but They usually give you music to listen to!. I just closed my eyes and listened to the music and answered questions when thay asked!. Dont worry its not as bad as you think, at least it wasnt for me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
