This must have to do with the injury itself. Depression is a by-product of your injury. You can't take stimulation in any format for long. I am getting that. If this is seriously getting worse, and not responding to rest or anything else, you need to go in for another consultation. I know you said doctors have told you nothing or have not helped. Going in the direction you are going, is what I am worried about. Can you get to another neuro? You can't just lay back and except that kind of life, it is not good enough, as your quality of life period is getting hurt by this injury. Where is your home state? And TBI was diagnosed and nothing more was done for you? There has to be more help out there than what you are getting. What have you done so far with the medical field? Don't answer today if you are not up to it. I understand. I don't want to make your condition worse. I want you quality of life to get better. There has to be a better direction for you. I hope others on this site will respond to, and try to offer direction. I will look on the PC for symptoms you are describing with regard to injury. I wish I could help you. ginnie
