You sound female. Have you had a good hormone assessment? Womens that will help you find a good specialist.

Generic doctors tend to use a broader standard than many need. Age has little to do with hormonal changes when mTBI is involved.

You might want to research detoxifying from anesthesia.

I know that I have struggled more after breaking my leg requiring surgery. Some people are more sensitive to the anesthesia that others.

Hope this helps.

My best to you.
