Default TBIlasting affects

I was in a rollover in Iraq and had a pretty bad TBI i have had several TBIs and been around lots of explosions. Its been 2 years since my last TBI and I am still having issues with PCS. some day or even a week is better than others but now I am battling depression. Will this ever end?

Vaevictus,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. Sorry to hear you are struggling so much.

I do not fully grasp your current symptoms. Your other post mentioned so other issues. There is no way to predict recovery time. The saying goes, If you have seen one brain injury, you have seen ONE brain injury.

Tell us more about your injury and what has been done so far. Do you have access to VA care? Are you on any meds? What is your daily life like? What kind of job, home life, habits, etc?

Check out the vitamin supplements thread. It may be down a page or two. It can help your brain clear the toxins from the injury.

There are plenty of good people here to help and support you. Keep in touch.

My best to you.

As Mark has said list your symptoms and what treatments you have done. Also list medications you are taking and what your daily routine is. This is a great place for support and an excellent resource for information. I have done alot of research off of this forum but have found this forum rich in info. I easily got more of and more clear info here than from my nuerologist.
