Default What did the doctors say at your first exam after receiving your concussion?

The thread is not to discuss what doctors have said but just to list the various terms and excuses doctors have stated to minimize the diagnosis after a head impact.

I have heard:

You can't get a concussion from just shaking your head.

You can't get a concussion from a roller coaster ride.

You can't have a concussion because you did not lose consciousness.

You can't have a concussion because the impact was not severe enough.

You can have a concussion because nothing actually impacted your head.


How about the myriad of lame comments from your doctors?

We could write a book and send it to those same doctors and to the Congressional Committee on Concussion.
