I have experienced many mild traumatic brain injuries over a long time as I was daredevil and I also played all the "dangerous" sports like football, rugby, hockey etc. I was unconscious several times.
Add to that severe alcoholism/drug abuse and associated brain damage. So when I finally quit drinking I was in a very bad place and the first diagnoses was MI of various types.
A simple MRI years later showed brain atrophy but the issue was never followed up and all my problems are still attributed to MI. Ridiculous!
Since I have been on sleeping pills, sedatives, ADs, and other "regular" medication I have noticed many problems cropping up such as worsening dyslexia. It takes me a long time to write a simple post since I have to go back and correct things several times to make my posts readable.
The doctors just keep pumping me meds and refuse to look for physical components now.
I give up...
