Aaron,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. You experience sounds familiar.

You were misguided when you attempted to rely on the best helmets to protect your head. Helmets do not reduce concussive forces by much. Their primary goal is to prevent skull fractures and the splattering of grey matter on the ground.

Read the thread Vitamin supplements. My suggested regimen is much stronger than a multi and fish oil. Most multi's are just a bit better than worthless. A good high strength supplement regimen will take about 2 months to see worthwhile improvement. You also need to stay away from caffeine and some other excito-toxins that stress the brain.

You are likely very sensitive to sensory overload. Too much visual and auditory stimuli can cause a fight or flight reaction. Other than sedating meds, the only way to control these is to proactively limit these excessive stimulations. Foam ear plugs can be a good start.

You may be able to get an assessment at a neurological rehab facility. A GP or PCP will not be much help with PCS issues. Most neuros are not much help with PCS issues. A Neuro Psychological Assessment may help or a NeuroPsych Doctor (PhD or Psych.D.) may have a therapy regimen than can help you.

Don't overlook upper neck injuries. They can contribute to dizziness issues and other physical issues. You do not need to have a sore neck for your neck to be causing problems. Every concussion has a neck injury component.

Your wife should be a BIG part of your support system. She can notice the early signs of trouble and gently pull you away. You both need to understand that these outbursts are your injury acting out. You can take steps to limit the risk of these outbursts.

Tell us more about the whens and wheres of you most common outbursts and maybe we can find a trigger. Tell us about any and everything you remember from the environment when you pop.

This is just a start.

We are here for you and your family.

My best to you.
