Hi.
I am sorry to hear your account and i completely empathize with you on this.
TBI can leave have long term ill effects, particularly on memory, attention and concentration, with
anxiety and depressive symptoms and a feeling of
dizziness and
vertigo long after the actual
injury, and though the symptoms appear to be related to the severity of the precipitating injury based on the level of consciousness at 30 minutes after the injury, it can occur even in the absence of any
loss of consciousness.
In a large number of TBI cases, the common imaging findings are negative for injury to brain parenchyma. Of course, if there if haemorrhage or
fracture of the skull, they could be seen, but not the other more subtle injuries.
X ray is an outdated investigation for TBI. CT brain is indicated in acute stages and for follow up imaging, to see for any residual structural changes in your brain in the last 20 years. A MRI brain scan with functional MRI (if available) would surely give a greater insight into the functionality of the various areas of your brain.
At the same time, guidance towards complete neuropsychological evaluation from a competent clinical
psychologist is also advised to assess you clinically and match clinical findings with imaging results.
Hope this helps
