Traumatic brain injury/mild, moderate,severe
Hi Everybody,
I found a website called traumatic brain injury.com. You can look up symptoms of mild, moderate or severe brain injury. There are also numerous resources on this website including referrals to lawyers, doctors, treatment, new updates on news etc. i have symptoms of severe traumatic brain injury. I knew that already but it made me understand a few things like why I am having flaring emotions, sleep disorders, seizures, trouble controlling bowels (I pee about 100 times a day) that is an actual symptom and many others that I cannot remember now. But it was helpful to understand that these things are symptoms. It was also helpful to understand the severity category. There are some on here that I know are in the same category as me but most these other new people I think are in the mild category. Anyway, there are a lot of resources on there to help people like us. Please check it out. I don't know how to post a link or I would.
