You are absolutely right and I couldn't have written it better myself. Just recently I stumbled upon an insurance case about a man involved in a car accident.

He did not get his insurance claim even though he clearly had severe PCS. The reasons for denying his claim were:

- Negative CT scan, which they translated to no structural damage.

- Claiming that his symptoms was a result of him having a lower than average intelligence.

- Blaming his following depression like state to his severe cognitive difficulties.


In other words, the man was stupid and mentally ill. They completely ignored the fact that his head had smashed through the windshield and that he was hospitalized for several days.

The number of misunderstandings about concussion injuries in that case were mind blowing.
