    The funny thing is we actually considered some sort of brain issue, but according to my neurologist after seeing my MRI, I have a very healthy brain.

    Of course, that doesn’t mean I’m not imagining things. Who knows? Anything could be psychosomatic.

      Note that neurology is a science at an infant stage. Not only do we have limited tools to analyze the brain, we barely know how it works. In contrast, even though plenty of forms of cancer are very difficult to treat, we have a solid understanding of how it works, we just have difficulties creating remedies that are safe and effective for all forms of cancer.

      I had the opposite situation. Went through some random checks because my doctor’s didn’t really know what was going on with me. Turns out it is probably all just depression, buuut they also found I have a suspicious amount of brain damage.
