Will,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. Sorry to hear you are struggling.

An MRI will not diagnose a concussion. There is no standard diagnostic procedure to diagnose a concussion after the fact. A concussion usually is suspected when any of a cluster of symptoms follow an impact to the head.

An MRI is used to rule out other causes of concussion like symptoms.

You have not told us anything about any previous concussions. I assume you suffered a concussion some months ago.

Please tell us about your concussion history, diagnostics, treatments and anything else you have been told. It appears you may have been given some poor information. This is not uncommon. Very few doctors really understand concussions.

Stress is the very worst thing you can do for a concussion. Stress will delay recovery and make symptoms much worse. It will also confuse doctors as they try to understand your symptoms.

So, slow down, cut back on your social life and activities that can put your head at risk. Read the Sticky at the top about Vitamins. It is the starting point for concussion recovery. There are good links at the bottom of the first post.

My best to you.
