Default hi BOB

Hi BOB

London calling its a bit tricky getting any kind of help from the NHS unless you have been diagnosed with a brain injury and thank your lucky stars you have only got the pcs

thats not to say its not a big issue for you, all you will hear from even specialists is rest and time

, there are some meds that people say have helped, but how you would get prescribed them on the NHS, I know not ,its good you feel you have improved, I wish I could say the same over 2 yrs out, but its all a mater of degrees with this

all I can suggest is omega 3/6 supplements keep hydrated try to do more activity but not to the point of head pain this maybe only be opening old wounds so to speak

I think PCS is more likely to set in if rest is not got directly after the injury

this is also been proven with more serious injury in the form of what is termed second insult injury the body basically destroys surrounding structures in the brain the rise in antibody's of certain type have been observed doing this,

but this is only in the early stages, well I think it can happen later with white matter scarring too but thats just my opinion ?

sorry mate I am twittering on a bit


slow progress is a result , welcome and keep us posted
