Jazzy,

DTI, Diffusion Tensor Imaging, is beyond the research level. The problem is that it can give a diagnosis but does not change the fact that there are limited treatments. It is also difficult to find an imaging center with a radiologist and neuro who understand the technology.

Multiple Impact Syndrome can be a struggle. After each successive impact, less recovery is possible. In time, the brain has used up all of its 'reserve' ability to recover. I am in the 'reserve is used up' state. My neuro was shocked to see how dysfunctional my brain is.

There are plenty of work-arounds to go on with a full life. It may be a different full life than originally planned but it can be full never-the-less.
