I had 6 diagnosed concussions. The most horrible one (for me) was my 4th one. Hit my head on a metal rail, was knockedout for less tnan 10 minutes. The first month of my recovery was HELL. Couldn't walk, couldn't even get to the bathroom without my husband's help, couldn't control my emotions, was crying constantly, had terrible headaches, etc, etc.
This happened in June, 2011.

I was completely sympton-free by August, 2011. I felt like I've never had any concussions in my life. Went back to zumba classes, being a VP of my kids' school PTA, etc., etc. But I lostmy business due to the fact that I had to spend a month and a half in bed, and, of course, I lost almost all my clients, but you know, I was healthy again and that what mattered.

So, yes, there is hope and it does get better. Just try not to hit your head again after you are recovered. Remember - it doesn't take much for people like us to get a new concusion. Good luck!
