Thumbs up New member.
Hi.

I found this site about a week ago, whilst researching closed head injury. I am nearly 2.5 years post head injury and still experiencing many symptoms. I am glad to have found this place as a resource, which will hopefully not only help me with finding similar people in similar circumstances, but also help me learn.
