Acquired Brain Injury

 Through my own research today (8/21/22) I found out via internet search that I had an acquired brain injury in the traumatic brain injury category. Shouldn’t I have known? Didn’t I have a right to know? It’s taken me over five years to find out I had a traumatic brain injury! This is seriously messed up. Why do we give health professionals the benefit of doubt? I don’t think that medical professionals deserve that benefit. I’m extremely mad about this. So much hoopla over privacy that they don’t mention the kind of injury I have. Ridiculous! I obviously can’t go back but really? 

If I didn’t need MRIs I would totally and utterly avoid the healthcare system. It’s trash. I’m sure that it has been and is helpful to some but certainly not me. This whole tumor thing is a nightmare that just won’t stop. Every single time I have to have a MRI I’m asked to fill out the same form. Years of the same questions. I get it. They give you paperwork to fill out in case something has changed. The validity of the paperwork doesn’t change how annoying it is.
