Does it affect your type of thinking? I am not sure how scientific left/right brain stuff is anymore, but it must have some affect on the thought process. I think that divergent brains are valuable as they give the opportunity to find what a normal brain will skip.
A lesson in life, get a second opinion!
This is what ended up getting me the diagnosis - the problem was that the issue was chronic by that stage and not much could be done.
So, I presume that you still suffer from the same condition?
A team of doctors wanted me to sign so that they could amputate my left leg 1980 after a severe motorbike prang. I spent 3 months in hospital and 2 years in plaster.
Of course I refused and I still walk on the leg to this day, only due to the head of the orthopedic section at another hospital advising me that we could save my leg.
Regarding my thinking patterns, it was an big issue some years ago, as some thought me simple and others thought me genius Lol. On and off depending on which brain directs my speech and my actions. An added big problem is that as a result I have two right hands and two left hands.(Ambidextrous)
Same with my feet and it was a huge problem in the army, as I got out marching as soon as I could. They appointed me as the boxing trainer.
The accident also left me with some chronic conditions that are worsening as I age, but I embrace and ignore them.
