I think this is the link about Neuroendocrine Dysfunction that TBI Mom tried to post.

Hmmmm.
I experience some of those symptoms but it doesn't say anything about language/communication problems, which is one of my main symptoms. It does mention memory loss and poor concentration; symptoms that could possible effect communication, right? I was sent for a blood panel a couple months ago but I've been putting it off. It looks like a lot, if not all of the tests that were ordered are the same as the ones suggested for NED. I'll get the tests done next week and let you know when the results come back.

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI. Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain. Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms. Slowly but surely regaining my life back. |

Is it one of those things they can test for but can't fix?

Endocrine dysfunctions can sometimes be treated by replacement hormones.
You might check with https://www.womensinternational.com/..._referral.html to see if they can refer someone with good NED skills.
