I know they usually use EEGs but I don't think that can pick up brain damage. I don't think I have epilepsy but that nagging thought that I have brain damage somehow just won't go away... I'm like having flashbacks to every time I've hit my head, held my breath for too long, fasted, etc. and I just can't shake the feeling that this is my fault...

But if it is delusional, then maybe I shouldn't get one because that's like giving into delusions. So idk.
Well it's not going to hurt you to get one if your insurance will cover it...if it's truly delusional you'll continue to think you have damage even after the MRI so it will be a wash though. Just make sure you don't have anything metal because it will get ripped off...
