Default hello all

Hi, I've just joined. Sorry to know we all share tough problems. My story is that I was a volunteer line official at an international tennis match and, in a temper tantrum, a top player hit a tennis ball as hard as he could to vent his frustration...accidentally but nevertheless directly and at close range into the side of my head. I am diagnosed with PCS and feel frightened and isolated. I'd love to ask you all a couple of questions but I don't want to come across as pushy. So, till next time...Keep getting better, Kay x

Hi Kay,

There are great people over in TBI/concussion forum. Lots of support from people experiencing many things you might be going through. There's a great deal of information and personal accounts of everyone's experience with tbi/concussions.

See you there,

Jace
