Ah thank you for the clarification Bec; I misread and thought Matt was already in hospital. Perhaps it is good for you that he is not going in just yet; this gives you an opportunity to adjust to the idea and ask all the questions you need to. Somewhere I have a list of questions for caregivers to ask psychiatrists, and I will search for it and send it to you. Jim and I found it most helpful. Be sure you ask all the questions and get all the answers you need; be assertive. It is your right to know and their job to tell you. Sometimes psychiatrists get irritated by too many questions, however that is wrong of them and you can tell the psych I said so! Oh dear I am becoming irritated for you already! :tongue:

I agree with Anthony, the MRI is a very positive step. However, when Evie went for hers, they did tell us that even if nothing showed up on the MRI, it was not a 100% indication or guarantee that Evie did not have PTSD. Apparently the brain changes are still somewhat theoretical, though they did find changes to Evie's brain. I apologize if that complicates matters for you, however that is what we were told.

I do hope you had a good rest last night and are feeling somewhat better. Perhaps do something especially nice for yourself and Matt today? Take good care.
