I can't take him to his pediatrician because his stupid mom didn't follow through with Welfare and his insurance got turned off.
He's still acting very weird. His pupils are really dilated, all the time, his balance is off, he's extremely fussy and being very disobedient. He takes long naps during the day, longer than usual...We usually sleep about 2-3 hours during the day now.
I took him to the emergency room and they wanted to give him a CT scan. I respectfully declined. The doctor said he doesn't think its anything serious or his symptoms would be more severe. I'm still very, very worried about him. I love my little boy and he's just not acting himself right now....
...HELP???

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI.
Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain.
Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms.
Slowly but surely regaining my life back.
