Question

I never new what TBI is until i came in this forum. i am a iraq vet that was involvedin several IED's and a c-4 blast that was VERY close and reverberated in-between buildings. i have been reading what side effects are associated with TBI and i feel i could have it. the symptoms that i have are PTSD, neck pain, mood/anger and ringing ears(that i know of). Now my question is how do i go about getting checked out for this? just go to my doctor and request a TBI screening?

Yes, request a TBI screening from the VA.

Also, it is not a VA tool but something that may help answer personal questions about TBI and how/if it is effecting you, you can use the TBI Survival Guide.

It is a free web book. Very helpfull to me.
