A member asked:

How do i know if my brain is bleeding? with out ct or mri?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

My questions: 1. Why do you ask this question? What symptoms are concerning you? 2. Have you seen your physician, if you have these concerns? 3. If this is important to you, should you schedule Concierge visit to evaluate this in more detail?
