fstarockr,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. You have responded to an old inactive thread.

My first question to you regarding your sudden need for a nap. How are you sleeping ? Do you dream or have stressful dreams ? Do you wake up during the night, maybe out of breath ?

What are your common activities during the day? Often, there are triggers that cause symptoms to manifest that can be discovered with a bit of looking back at activities and work loads.

Read the sticky thread at the top about Vitamins and Supplements. It has good brain nutrition info.

btw, The info you refer to in your first paragraph is bogus. Amnesia has little to do with intensity of a concussion. People have had severe concussions with full memory before and after the impact. Much of a concussion's damage can take place hours to days after the impact. The memory part of the brain can remain completely intact while other areas are seriously damaged.

My best to you.
