HelloHome,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. Your comments are very familiar. I am from the Bay area and know of no specialists in concussion there.

Tell us about your symptoms. There is far more knowledge here about concussions than in the vast majority of neuro offices. Your comment about them saying your symptoms not matching the severity of your injury is very common and completely without any medical validity.

There are a few truths to understand. First, If you have seen one brain injury, you have seen ONE brain injury. None are alike. Second, there is no direct connection between the intensity of the impact and the symptoms or time to recovery. This is medical fact. Any doctor who says otherwise is misinformed.

So, please tell us about your symptoms and struggles. We are here to help.

My best to you.
