Hi everyone,
Brain patch here. There was a person who had said that if anyone needs help with disability paperwork their offer still stands to help. I can't find the thread of who that person was. I am really in need. I have traumatic brain injury and every time I try to explain what is going on or answer the disability questions my answers are taken the wrong way. Far from what the meaning was. I can't even get my own family to understand. Sometimes I think they are brain damaged. I guess I am not coming across right and get so frustrated nobody can understand. I did have a neurologist who totally understood and have a letter from him. I am getting in to someone who does neuropsychological testing. I really think an MRI or cat scan of my brain would help. It has to show some damage. I am so impared. The problem is I only have Medicaid. How can I get an MRI or cat scan with Medicaid? Should I just go to the e.r next time I am having a migraine with vision loss and insist on these tests? The other people on here with tbi and post concussive syndrome make perfect sense to me and I wonder if they have problems getting family etc. to understand what is happening with them. Please someone that can help please reply. I have a phone appointment to do disability app on 2/21/13. Thanks so much. Sorry if I sound like I am insane. I have so much trouble with moods, anxiety, sleeping, eating, constipation, being able to function in the world. No spouse or anyone to turn to. The paperwork that came in the mail today for disability has me so frustrated. This would of been so easy for me before my TBI. I am just in tears trying to figure out my work history. Ridiculous thanks all for the support.
