Lost consciousness as a child from falling to floor when passing out in church.

Bonked the head a few times & was punched in the face once over the decades. Passed out once in public & someone called an ambulance for me.
Didn't wake up til I was in ER.

Walked into a metal hook by accident 10 yrs. ago- lost consciousness for a few seconds- some blood on that one.

No PCS symptoms til this one.

So maybe I had 3-4 but they had no complications. The punch caused TMJ.

Current symptoms: Brain pain. Amplified by stress, extreme heat. Front teeth nerve pain. Bumps & impacts to elbows, fingers, etc. take long to heal & hurt a lot.

Jeffrey: Sorry I laughed when you mentioned brain pain. The brain itself doesn't feel the pain but I know what you mean. It is a collection of all the symptoms we have.
