MRI sedation

I need to have an MRI scan on my neck as I've been having major pain in my neck/back area for a few months now. Dr says I need an MRI but I get really claustrophobic in them, (I've a few before) but have always had sedation of some kind.

I need to have an MRI scan on my neck as I've been having major pain in my neck/back area for a few months now. Dr says I need an MRI but I get really claustrophobic in them, (I've a few before) but have always had sedation of some kind. I don't want to have to wait for a public appointment but none of the private clinics seem to do sedation as they say they don't have a nurse available , if anything goes wrong. :O
Does anyone know of anywhere that would do the MRI with sedation meaning that I don't have to take valium beforehand which never works. I've tried on 2 occassions now to have this scan and both times I've freaked in the scanner and had to be removed!!!
