Thanks, and I'm sorry to hear about what your going through.
Its amazing how your life can change in just one moment. My life came to a screeching halt that day.
I know "whining" about it on here doesn't fix anything...but, hopefully, someone that knows what I'm going through, such as yourself, will come along and share their experience with me.
I'm also looking for suggestions from people of why I could be getting worse every day. Maybe someone went through the same thing as me and found a solution...Maybe some doctor from Vegas will find this thread on Google and come save me.
I don't know, but it makes me feel better when I vent. So, I apologize to those that I've annoyed by my "whining". Imagine how I feel dealing with this. The way things are going I'll be a mute vegetable by the time I'm 30.
Cheers.

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI.
Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain.
Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms.
Slowly but surely regaining my life back.
