The psychiatrist tell me that is impossibile to suffer a concussion without losing consciousness so my cognitive struggles (both the actual ones and the ones before taking antipsychotics but after the car crash) must be imaginary.
At the same time, I have found a neurologist who is not knowledgeable about antipsychotics but believes that my cognitive impairmente may be due the car crash and he ordered an MRI with tensor diffusion, I will do it in a couple of weeks.
It is reliable to see if I suffered a concussion in the car crash?
Or it is possible that damage will not show up on it?

That’s good he knows about DTI but unless you have severe TBI, decent chance concussion symptoms won’t show up on MRI. My MRI with DTI didn’t show anything and I have vision issues and the classic PCS symptoms.
My dr wanted me to try 25mg seroquel. My pain and fog are really bad which leads to suicidal ideation. I’m going to pursue hormone therapy and go that route before I try it. I don’t think it will lead to the clarity I’m seeking.
