Creating the world

Having read the article on anosognosia I was taken aback by the evidence mounting to the control the brain has on how we perceive our experiences. Also, the way we go about trying to rationalise such discrepancies is noteworthy. (The 2 out of 3 ladies that insisted even healthy persons were paralysed) Is it the brain making up such explanations for factual and supposed inaccuracies, or is it the ‘I function’ doing so? How much outside information can be ‘warped’ by the brain without our knowledge?
