Thank you
I had a speck scan a few months ago. Strangely,the Nuropsychiatrist who order the test concluded that there were these sort of spotty portions of my left cerebral something or other that indicated some kind of "Brain Damage". He said that this was most likely something inate however if it was inate why all of a sudden would I start to have these debilitating symptoms? It just doesn't make sense and I'm going to go to another nurologist. I had asked the Dr. if the vast amounts of psychotropic drugs that I've tried including anti-psychotics could have caused this and he got very defensive and said "no,no,no not the this extent".So you can get brain damaged to an extent from these psychotropics?In any case he went on to say that my speck was not consistent with clinical depression. He also said the part damaged is the part of the brain that regulates mood; said nothing about cognition and memory which are my main symptoms. So, i'm in the dark, don't know what to do and need as much advice as possible because I'll fight to the bitter end, I'll never give up, I WANT MY LUCIDY BACK!!!!! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP. WHAT COULD THIS BE?
