Hello notthesame: I'm sorry I cannot really be of much help to you. I'm 68. And I'm quite certain I've had multiple concussions over the years... not from playing sports though. (I'll spare you the details.) However, when I was young, one did not receive any kind of medical treatment unless one was at death's door. So regardless of what may or may not have occurred, life just went on. Today, I have Meniere's Disease, as well as a variety of mental health problems. (I'm actually a more active member on NT's sister-website PsychCentral.) I have tinnitus & I live day-to-day with what I sometimes refer to as a "head-in-a-fishbowl" sort of feeling.

Anyway... since this is your first post here on NeuroTalk, I thought I would welcome you. I hope you find whatever amount of time you spend here to be of benefit.
