You are getting some good advice above.

Sorry you're still struggling with these things.

It's time to be reevaluated. That's just part of being injured/not healthy for whatever reason. You probably are not going to be happy about the results.

Your new concerns can be related to PCS or it may be unrelated. but either way, a combination of or a result of or something else doesn't matter. I don't think you can escape the necessary medical attention any longer.

You're very stong-willed, which is a good thing. Use it wisely. Put your health first.

I like to look 5 years ahead for a short-term plan/goal and then see 10 years down the road as more of a goal. Where will you be soccer14?

Chances are, your coach already knows something's not right too. Your eyes would tell the tale too. dilated pupils, constricted pupils. You may be exhibiting a dazed looked or gaze and you're the only that don't know that. You could have a cold, clamy look, sweaty...

You blood pressure needs to be monitored for sure.

It sounds like you're experiencing episodes of syncope, for whatever reason, and in addition to all the PCS symptoms you're still dealing with.

Take care.

Keep in touch...
hey thanks this sounds like it could be happening. its hard to tell though because i cant really keep track of all the symptoms i experience during the day because there are so many.

do you think you could explain what an episode might feel like? or what i posted that made you think i was having these episodes? thanks that would help.

It is a medical term that is used when a patient has an episode of "loss of time" or "zoning out" or "nonresponsive" or "a blank space in your day" or "mini strokes" or better medically described as "TIA" (transit ischemia attacks." But the patient is awake and functioning. It is a brain related thing. many causes.

You would not feel the earth shake with this. You just kind'a know that wasn't right. You may think "what happened?" or "what?" or "What did you say?" or "What was I doing" or "How long was I out for?"

physically, you just feel like you were out for a second and nobody but you knows.

I think chiropractors are just like Drs, PTs & any service person.. there are really good one s and there are not so good ones.

Mine does other treatments beside adjustments - for my tight muscles, the trigger points & any muscles spasms I may have.
Like a DC & PT rolled in to one.
He uses ultrasound, manual TrP work, low level laser{aka cold laser}, Inferential electric stimulation {IF stim}.

There are DCs out there than can & will do all of this , but finding a good one will take time, calling around and asking if multiple modalities are used for treatment might be a good way to find one.

Same goes for finding an advanced PT person , there are some that take advanced classes & spine care, calling and asking about PTs w/advanced training would be how to find one.

The tight & possibly spasmed back muscles need to be addressed - that could be a part of your problem also.

I don't have much faith in any Dc or MD or PT that sees very tight muscles and doesn't treat or at least refer patient to further care & tx for those.

A big circle of effects - muscle spasms can keep pulling the various vertebra out of alignment, poor alignment can affect the vertebra and around it goes.

You'll more than likely fall down and go boom!!!!!!!!!

Don't know where or when, but "NORMAL" don't feel that way, OK?

The etiology/cause is for a doctor to investigate, and I do mean INESTIGATE, so this "NEW" or a "WORSENING" condition can be properly diagnosed and a plan for you to get fixed ---- Highly probable they can fix it at this stage. Could be as simple as taking a Bayer aspirin a day. dahhhh!!!!! could be a side effect from a drug/vitamin/herb you're taking.

There are many things that can be done depending on why these episodes are happening to a VERY young person.

They can medicate/treat/cut/repair/laser/inject/stent/replace/untrasound/doppler/angio/nuck/radiate/eradicate/sonogram/somanytests and procedures can be done, if necessary, to hopefully find the true cause, and it can be a combination of something too.

Don't put it off. Things can get worse for a number of reasons.

You've proved your point, OK? U get the TOUGHMAN'S prize. I really mean that. You are tough. You'll need that in life, to get through life. I'm vey proud of your spirit.

U NEED MEDICAL ATTENTION!!!!!!

one game i was playing in i hadnt been doing well at all you know just working to stand up but i didnt want to say anything so i kept playing.

about half way through the 3 quarter all of a sudden it was like my head totally cleared and i felt the most calm i ever had in my life. i went on to score 15 points in the 4 quarter and felt great for about an hour after the game.
The same exact thing happened to me. Very weird.
