Default Post Concussion

Hi.. I am new the the site and have a deep concern. My wife feel about a year ago and hit her head hard on a tile covered concrete floor. She was diagnosed with a concussion (along with neck and back injuries). It has now been a year and she is still experiencing dizziness, headaches, and confusion. She has also developed a problem of knowing her left from her right. She will give directions to someone, saying turn right while pointing to her left or vice-versa. She also has become very moody, angry, and depressed.

She is treating with a pain specialist for her back pain. She has already had a fusion of the SI joint due to injuries from the fall and is apparently going to have to have a fusion of her L4-L5 as well.

She (and I) have began to wonder if this is a permanent change to our lives. She has become increasingly depressed and sometimes discusses suicide. We are trying to find someone in the Orlando Fl region who can help her. Any ideas or suggestions???

We really need some help and some hope.
