Whether an MD tells a patient they will never recover to 100 % or tells them they can expect to heal 100% is based on the knowledge of the MD. In reality, nobody who suffers a brain injury will ever recover 100%. Many doctors just don't understand this. They think that since their patient stops complaining about symptoms that it means they are 100% free of symptoms.

Research was done decades ago to show that there are always residual symptoms. For some, they are quite obvious. For others, they do not manifest these ongoing symptoms until they are under stress of some kind.

So, MiaVita, your doctor was being more truthful with you.

My best to you.
