so I waited two years before I mentioned it to a different doctor...and was recommended to a neurologist. Anyway, long story short, my neurologist tells me there's no nerve damage.... but yet I can't feel my right leg or arm well enough to feel my reflexes or my muscles in my upper leg and upper arm.
Is there anything I can do to help my nervous system at all?

Hi Hon.
Welcome to Neurotalks. Mind if I ask why you would give yourself a concussion on purpose? Were you experimenting and wanted to see what would happen if you banged your head?
Just curious. You don't have to answer if you don't want to.
All the best,
Mel
