Smirk Post Concussion Syndrome - The "unknown" Condition ??

I know that PCS exists - I've had it for 20 months, thankfully I met someone who had this condition 10 years ago who directed me to a neuropsychologist.
I am presently seeing a psychologist who tells me that this is still not a 'recognised' condition in the reference used to describe conditions (forgot the name/term for this reference - memories not good today!!) - this means that although I have been correctly diagnosed by 4 medicos (and mis-diagnosed by a dozen more!!) - this leaves insurance co's (and medics) etc. to translate the diagnosis to their advantage....... So far, it seems that I suffer from PTSD, mental illness, potential stroke &/or nervous disorder etc. etc. etc. !!! LOL - All because I chose to hit my head against the back of a car that ran a stop sign !!
Humour aside (one of the few things I have going for me!!)
Isn't it time that PCS received more attention, and not treated as a subjunct to PTSD ???.
