I was able to go to my first neorologist appt. for Post Concussion Syndrome yesterday. I gave them a disc of my CT scan for them to copy, and wrote out all my symptoms before hand, so they made a copy of that also.

He did talk to me about my symptoms, and wanted more bloodwork and and MRI done.

What was funny (I thought) was after he got done testing my reflexes with the little hammer thingy, he looked up at me and asked "So. When was the last time you had reflexes?" I laughed and said back to him "Your supposed to have em? Really, tho, I had them at my last physical, a while back. Definatly had them pre injury." He said it could be related to whatever it is thats causing the symptoms OR meds. Which are Trazadone for sleep, and Depekote for anxiety. Either way I am assuming thats why he wants more blood and an MRI.

Anyone else lose those reflexes suddenly after a head injury?
