Neither will show the microscopic damage from a concussion.

The common symptoms from a concussion have an overlap between physiological and psychological. because of this overlap, many doctors will focus on the psychological causes because they can not explain the physiological causes.

Either way, your symptoms are real. It is how you respond to them that can be a psychological event.

It is best to address each symptom individually.

If you have not already, list you worst symptoms and we can suggest ways to tolerate or reduce them. Coping skills are the most useful remedy.

My best to you.
