What Does My MRI Scan Report Indicate?

I am a 71 year old Native American/Caucasian woman who fell face forward on June 24 th this year so hard as I was walking down a very badly maintained sidewalk in an elderly/disabled apartment where I was a caregiver, I fell so hard that I shattered an Otter Box case protecting my IPhone 6 and badly shattering the front screen because it was in my right hand pants pocket when I fell. I am going to have a consult with a spine doctor because my cervical MRI shows four bulging discs (C1-2, C2-3, C3-4, and C4-5). This is background for my question which is that since I broke my right hand at the fourth metacarpal and a crack of the fifth metacarpal, if a person gets bone marrow in his blood stream, will any odd symptoms appear such as extreme anger, feeling like I want to kill myself or someone else (usually I am a kind grandmotherly woman who loves and tries to help everyone), no patience, insomnia or anything else? I am shocked at my feelings and I know everyone I know would be also. I have developed all of these since my fall. I hope I have included enough information for you to assess the damage. Oh yes, and I have a bulging disc at L4-5. Any advice would be much appreciated. Is there any chance that I might not be able to control my violent in the future? Also I have no history of mental illness and do not use street drugs or drink. Even prescription drugs I use extremely carefully and sparingly including pain medications because I am very aware of the opioid epidemic in our country. Can you possibly understand what is going on with me and explain it to me? I am a type II diabetic with mostly diet control with no other problems or diseases before my fall. I did have cataract surgery on my left eye in May 2015 and on my right eye in July 2016. I am extremely afraid of what is going on. Please help me if you can!!! I have chart notes. x-rays and MRIs on CDs if it will help you. Please feel free to ask me any questions that may help you determine a diagnosis for me.

Hi,

There are times when individuals have an increased state of anxiety and this leads to extreme anger and symptoms mentioned by you. A mild concussion injury to the head can cause certain symptoms for about 3 to 6 months from the injury. It will help to know if you got any brain scans done and if there are any findings in the brain that can support the symptoms you are having.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vivek Chail, Radiologist
