[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 547353, member: 84"] Tedo, I have [B]never[/B] had an MRI. Would be interesting to see what one might show. I imagine quite a lot as I share many many issues with Travis now. But none was ever done. Bone doctor wouldn't do it, not really a reason to, he was treating my shoulders. I didn't have the presence of mind to even ask for at least 2 yrs......and really, not even after that until recently, maybe the past couple of years. It's hard to put much of this into words, describing it is difficult. I can still drive, thank heaven above, although pumping gas is a challenge. Go figure. But that is just the way it works. I might lose a short term memory in less than 30 seconds or months later, this same memory may come right back if triggered by something someone says/does or it might not resurface for months or whatever when something else triggers it. (or it might not come back at all) Totally random. Totally frustrating. I've also noticed I can no longer spell worth squat. I did have issues with this post Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), they resolved for a while, but it's back and has been back for more than a year. Thank god for spell check. LOL I hope to heaven above they have medications to help, but no one suggested them post Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) when I discussed this with docs, other than the anxiety ones.......so I dunno. Those I think made the symptoms worse in my opinion even back then. But like I said, all of this has gotten worse, so maybe they didn't feel the need then. dunno. And our disability insurance.......well, someone correct me if I'm wrong.........I don't get the impression it's that proactive if you get my drift. Maybe for a child, but I've not seen it for an adult. I had to laugh because as Travis was describing some of the skill/IQ whatever tests they were having him do..........I would so flunk them. :eggonface: [/QUOTE]
