Default Where do I begin?

Terribly mixed results in my family as regards scans of the Brain from those of us who have sustained brain injury.
Uncle, a cousin and my son correctly read scans.
My father, another cousin, and self, incorrectly read.

Dad's scan read by radiologist at local hospital and as we found out later it was never signed which beggars the question was it actually read? He continued to deteriorate and 3 weeks later sent to a larger hospital who were in disbelief that he hadn't been sent straight away. Continually bleeding in the brain and because of condition he was now in, they wouldn't operate.

Cousin lucky, another doctor took one look at him and scan and transferred him to main hospital.

I was told my scans were fine, insurance company demanding I be sent to Neurologist who showed me scan and how to read it. My bleed had stopped of its own accord.

In whom do you trust? This family a believer in getting second opinions.
