Hello everyone!

I got the chance to speak with Dr. Willer (one of the researchers at the University of Buffalo who works with Dr. Leddy) last night. Things are looking really good for me going down to Buffalo to take part in the study! If all goes well, I will be able to go down in a few weeks for testing. I will definitely post my experiences for those who are interested.

He was explaining how they believe people who have been suffering from PCS for more than six weeks aren't still experiencing their various symptoms because of the actual concussion, but rather because they have been de-conditioned from no exertion. It is really interesting stuff, and I'm very excited to be a part of it!

He also said I will need to get a heart rate monitor for when I exercise. Does anyone have any advice on these? What I should look for, where to buy them, how much a basic one costs, etc? Thanks!

Kelly
