Default mother of child with concussion

I'm so sorry to hear about all of your stories. My family is dealing with a similar one. My 11 yo son has gotten a possibility of 3 concussions since Sept, with 2 of them within two weeks of each other. He just went back to school 1/2 days last Thursday after being out of school for a month. His post concussive symptoms are definitely getting better.....the violent headaches are gone, he's having some more milder ones, but the most concerning are the behavioral ones. He is very quick to anger and has had a number of aggressive/violent outbursts. Those have also less with time, but he's so afraid that it's going to happen in school and he can't control himself. He's never had these types of outbursts before the concussion. The neurologist has said that things should lessen over time as the concussion completely heals, but it's so frustrating and scary in the meantime.

Have any of you seen these types of behavioral issues? I keep getting that they are "A-typical."

Thanks for any help.
