I don't know if it would help or not. Right now I can't afford to see anyone. The scan confused me a little. They said they saw a lot of white matter deep within the brain. i don't really know what that means though. I only had the one scan and I wo…
Faith, were did you have your SPECT scan done? I had one done in CA and like you my ADHD didn't show up but I was taking one of my medications at the time that I didn't want to stop. I also have major depression which showed up. What did you mean wh…
I finally got the results from my SPECT scan about 2 weeks ago. It's taken me about that long to really understand what they were saying. What I had was the resting scan which shows what the brain is like when my mind is not active. They could see m…
My father has it but denied it until a few weeks ago. I got him to admit it twice. I have it to the point that I'm on disability. I think my 4 year old has it but I was told they can't even test her for at least 3 or 4 years
Reminds me of when I was in high school. I was beat up in class by 4 guys. They told the principal that I sprayed them in the face with hairspray, I was just sitting there reading a book. The boys didn't get any punishment but even after my mother w…
I had good news today. I went to the doctors and got my test results. My blood work came back normal and so did my MRI. My e.e.g had a minor thing but the doctor wasn't worried about it. If my health insurance will cover it, I may be having a SPEC s…

I had good news today. I went to the doctors and got my test results. My blood work came back normal and so did my MRI. My e.e.g had a minor thing but the doctor wasn't worried about it. If my health insurance will cover it, I may be having a SPEC scan next month or the month after.
I know I haven't really been on much but, I've been having a few health issues lately. Over the last 2 weeks, I've been having numbness though my whole body, including my face and mouth.
