We were instructed to wait two weeks after the last symptom before she could play again. And we followed that to the best of my ability each time. As you know we are completely dependent on her honesty about her symptoms. So when she began complaining about headaches we didn't associate it with her previous concussions. She is being treated for migraines, which we have a family histoRy for. Then the depression and now her anxiety has been attributed to the stress of life changes and going away to school. Now that I'm learning about long term effects of repeated concussions a light bulb has gone off! I will definitely be pursuing a neuro-psych eval this summer when she comes home. To stop playing is a no brainer. But I'm desperately hoping to rid her of the anxiety and headaches she is living with. But I'm not finding anything that gives me any hope for that.
