No, the doctors don't know. My mom hasn't told them and at the time of the last appointment I didn't know, she told me all this on the way home, so I couldn't tell them either. I don't think I need the MRI because what's wrong can't get better or worse, nothings changed in 17 years so I don't know what the point of all this is. I'm looking for an opportunity to tell my mom all this, but I really don't want to mention it around my dad and its the middle of the weekend.
I would just do the MRI anyway, I am curious what my brain looks like (lol)but the doctor wants it with contrast and I have a really bad fear of needles, to the point that I've slept like 3-5 hours a night since I found out about it.
