Hello all,
I am in a fourth month of post concussion. After reading many threads in this forum I found my case is rather different than others. I was knocked out after a failed ski jump without helmet. No need to say how horrible the first few weeks is. I thought I was doing quite well after 2 months, the remaining symptoms were mediate depression and insomnia no problem with balance, or cognitive. I was eager to play sport again. So after 2 months I play soccer and have a slight collision with a player. That alarmed me and I stop playing immediately even though I have no headache or anything. It seemed that my sleep get worse since then. I am not sure if it is just psychological effect or real second impact. All symptoms slowly came back with my insomnia I now have vertigo, memory problem, nausea, migraine. I could not run or swim as I could 2 months after the injury.
I am trying to find a good doctor or a concussion specialist but could not find any reliable source. I went to a neurologist but she seems does not understand my problem. I also searched this website but have not found a list of good doctors. If you have good experience with concussion specialists, neurologists, or happen to know a good source that I can find good doctors please let me know. I live in Tricities of Washington state. Thank you.
