Yes you need an MRI. There are wide open MRI scan Tunnels where you do not feel claustrophobic. So Google and get it done or ask your doctor where can you get one.

Looks like you are claustrophobic. You can try an MRI with an open magnet configuration or a silent MRI. If they are not within your reach, ask your doctor for some anxiolytic medication to go ahead with the MRI.
