I've heard it mentioned before to avoid the artificial sweeteners. I would just like to second that advice, after an accidental consumption of Sucralose. I was craving something sweet, so I made a cup of Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa. About halfway through the cup, I went on a crazy sugar rush, followed by extreme brain fog and a weird personality change. Checked the package and sure enough, it has Sucralose in it.
Not the business. For some reason I'm in a really good mood but my thoughts are extremely disorganized and nothing I say is coming out right. Stay away from the artificial crap!!!

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. |
