HI, My nmae is Judy and I am here out of desperation. I was injured to my head and neck by somebody important so my medical is being blocked at every turn. I am being told I am a liar , my symptoms don't exist, all the Ahcccs doctors say there is nothing on my MRI but when I pay cash they do see injury...
I don't have the cash to keep paying..
my injury was September of 2014.... There is a little hole in my skull where I was hit and the Hospital where I had my first CT said there was no injury to be seen. I did not find the injury myself on the CT until October 2016 when I used my own reader for MRI & CT scans... then I take it to a doctor I paid cash too and the injury was confirmed... but still I am being blocked since I dont have money.
There is even bleeding in to my neck...
I do hope this forum will be of some use...
I am like all the rest.. feels like everybody is out to get me...

Judypie,

Welcome to NeuroTalk.

There is nobody here that can review your images. Medicaid can limit access to good doctors and care. Often, a teaching hospital and clinic is a good place for a Medicaid patient to get better care.

You don't say what your symptoms and struggles are or how you were injured. Can you help us understand so we can try to help.

btw, A skull injury does not necessarily define a brain injury. They can be related but you can't use one to diagnose the other.

I dont trust anybody
I am suspicious of everything and its like I am living in a computer program where everybody just wants me to DIE !
Thank you

Lots of post concussion syndrome symptoms can be psychological rather than physical. Any bone injury would be long since healed, and any hematoma would be absorbed by now. You'd be dead if you had been bleeding into your skull for 3 years.

If it is psychological, a therapist may help you overcome these symptoms. Maybe if you print out what you wrote and show it to him/her.

I've personally had a lot of physical symptoms that I'm now seeing may be psycological, and therapy does help.

Judypie,

It sounds like you need to find a psychologist who can help you identify your problems and help you develop some strategies to move forward. You may be suffering from PTSD and the many related symptoms that come with PTSD.

It appears you copy/pasted your list of symptoms from an online source, possibly WebMD. This will turn off any doctor who sees this list.

It helps to make up a personal list of symptoms. You don't say what your individual symptoms are.

What part of Arizona are you in ? Maybe we can find a referral for you.

Yes thanks for pointing out my list. It was many weeks of perfecting this list for myself as since a person with an injury has a pretty hard time explaining in person about their issues. I cant find the words when asked..
Thanks for saying its all mental...
I am already in behavioral health and with my CPTSD from extreme physical & mental abuse from my father, past boyfriends, murder of my kids dad by police, and then getting my *** kicked by my law enforcement boyfriend and then he calls the police and they kick my ***.. its just got to be all mental.. I couldn't possibly have real pain... your so right just like all the rest...
I must be imagining headaches...
I was a store manager and pharmacy tech for 12 years until getting hit in the head.. my neck issue is a separate issue all together... I just wanted honesty about what appears to be blood since I had a chiropractor snapping my neck with out having any x-rays, CT or an MRI to look at.... Thanks
