Cjm,

My condolences in the loss of your son. I can't imagine what you have been through and are going through.

Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome can cause Post Concussion Syndrome symptoms to be much worse and vice versa. The combination of the two can be miserable. The US Veterans Administration has done lots of research into this combination.

Finding someone with good skills with PTSD and PCS will be important.

I have the combination after being abused by some cops and put into a claustrophobic situation for an hour. My doctor put me on Paxil/paroxetine and it made a big difference.

My best to you.
