Default same here

definately can relate, my hubby suffered Jul/Aug 2010, and we're 1yr later, having had no idea, that previous injuries, plus the latest 3, and now 2 more, can cause such acute issues, with all the same symptoms you're describing. its a long and painful road, and i feel like we're on a treadmill, and there's just no end. i'm told to think of it like a marathon instead, still long distance running, but there at least is an end! Someday! The hardest part, was associating all the years of previous injury, and accidents, with no diagnosis, and no proper medical records, to now, and reconciling the damages done are cumulative. Waiting for specialists, in-patient testing, so many different Dr's so many tests, and like you've all said, they think as soon as you have a negative EEG you're full of SH&^! If only medicine could come up with some better imaging techniques, and some better recognition of the dramatic changes the injuries can cause. With the focus on Sports injuries, and the huge & sad influx of Post War trauma's maybe someday, the average guy with mTBI will get the diagnosis, and attention he requires. Good luck everyone,
