Default 1 year after. Recovery?

As I close in on 1 year, well 2 ish months from now, I begin to get the sense I will likely have some symptoms remaining as I reach that mark.

I have "heard" that after 1 year you likely will have some form of impairment, I don't know where or how I heard it, but is there any truth to this??

Also, I guess if there is a recovery, is it a forgone conclusion that returning to high risk activities, sports, my job, is it more lilkely that the next concussion will be more long term than even this one or is it possible that I could have a "regular" concussion again.

I know the smart money is to avoid it all together but I work a high risk job, and if I return to that I am almost thinking well then why wouldn't I play hockey again?

A little bit confused and anxious as of late so hopefully you guys can help me sort it out. I begin at the local brain injury clinic this week and am really looking foraward to a new perspective with possibly a better way to focus my recovery. Hope everyone is well and enjoying the good days, even if they are less
