Hi fluentinsarcasm

Welcome to NeuroTalk .

My general suggestion is that you could encourage your boyfriend to give up activities which put him at risk of concussion - the brain damage from concussion is cumulative.

A retired football player here, with a long history of sport-related concussion, has been prescribed Aricept which he says has helped him. This is an option which your boyfriend could discuss with his health care team.

I hope that the referral to a concussion clinic will help him.

All the best.
