families & follow up
Sun, 04/27/2014 - 14:13I am at a lost as to wether I should following up with a neurologists either with psychiatrist/ psychologists. My family is pressuring me to have one, mainly my mother. I have regretted saying anything about seizures since March 2013
One I have a deep seated dislike of hospitals and currently Any professional medical help unless I am blue ,bleeding horribly, or have broken bone . Other then that I have tape ,ice packs and glue .
I am absolutely possed just pure anger over everything .
She reminds and tells me I have TBI ,Scar tissue ( lesions),and specks all over my brain from dye Mir scarlois( scars) on smaller damaged left hippocampus
And I have been hit in the same head more f**king Times then I can count
Then my mom tells me it's been like that for years and she's worried now whats that suppose to mean really
I mean everything is upside down for me , psychogenic non epileptic seizures are driving me 37 ways to poprocks on a stick Amusement bin
I am worn thin to the bone with what the hell ever these episodes . 5-7 days stuck in a room hooked to wires with never ending noise and foot steps and running and that G*d alarm,no showers and questions and crap
And I get a psych referral and a probable PNES .
On record
Since then I had "one " seizure episode in the middle of class before end semester beyond words crazy angry
I just do not see the point to any of it ,I don't care if I can legally drive or not
So should I just go and see a doctor or not ?
I need biased and unbiased advice here because I am lost as hell.
