I had a regular (lying down) MRI, even though I couldnt lie on my back AT ALL.
The MRI techs placed so many pillows and elevated various parts of my back/legs until I was able to keep the pain bearable.
You are likely not the first person they have dealt with that is in pain and they will be understanding and do everything they can to help you. I would call ahead and inform them so they can have extra items/time to help you.
