The more serious damage would mean no opportunity for improvement in that area. Clear would mean the damage is microscopic and more able to be tolerated to regain better function.

The microscopic damage would mean living a calmer life to enable better function. The larger damage would mean there is little you can do.

As for how others would view your injury, I would prefer they not understand because my injury is less severe than they do understand it because it is severe.

Just my view of life with PCS.

Do you know what the Tesla power was?
Thanks Mark, you are a legend as ever. I was fortunate that the hospital is very well equipped and it was 7 Tesla. I am all over the place today after yesterdays zapping. Just has call from psychiatric team offering me a doctors consultation next Tuesday. At least I'll be getting neuro and psych support to keep me going x
