LMLS,

Most here on NeuroTalk know that very few neurologists know much about concussions at all.

I doubt he has read much about concussions and anxiety. If he followed concussion issues, he would never make such a statement. Many respond to how a patient presents their symptoms. If the neuro can't verify the symptoms (they are hard to verify objectively), they tend to discount them. They prescribe anti-depressants and anxiolytics to try to calm the patient.

The study about anxiety and concussions is rather obscure.

When you start your own thread, it would be helpful to describe your injury, your past and current symptoms, any diagnoses or treatments from doctors or chiros and what supplements and doses you are taking. Many get a generic recommendation or get sold a 'proprietary supplement' that is distributed by the alternative medicine doctor. For example, most turmeric is a waste of money. In unconcentrated form, you would have to eat it by the spoonful.
