Red face Update

Since i finished my new program with Haldol, Tizanidine, carbamazepine and made just a minor progress, i started to party again...i was drinking 3 days in a row, felt great when i was doing it lol, had hangover like usually, afterwards after 5 days i did it again for 2 days, nothing really changed.

Its like anything, i do isnt changing everything, mild headaches like usually, sometimes a bit dizzy, getting dizzy if i shake my head from left to right, but just after shaking, afterwards it stops, im in very good physical condition, i still got a lump in neck, and no one can help me with it, small neck stifness.

You cant tell by watching from side that that i have TBI. Its not getting worse thats for sure, so im planing to return to basketball court next week, ill start with minor exercises and try jumping from which im affraid, since its 3 months since the injury im ready to risk, wish me good luck!

Ziggo's ability to party and get drunk is a very rare situation. It is not recommended that anybody with PCS treat their brain like this.

As the saying goes,

"Don't try this at home"

I completely agree with Mark here. Every brain injury is very different from one another - how does the saying go? Once you've seen one brain injury, you've seen one brain injury.

Drinking alcohol has the potential to make your brain worse. I don't think it's really worth trying or experimenting with at all, but I didn't drink a lot before the injury I sustained. I haven't felt like I've had my brain in 20 months and I would really regret having a drink and causing it to not come back for a longer period of time or at all.
