I have never ever ever wished this on anybody.... until just now. I think the experience of a concussion would do that guy a LOT of good!!!

I live in Manitoba and I had one done. I didn't see a psychologist or Psychiatrist, but all of the other things. The lights were flourescent and they wouldn't let me use my welding goggles. There was a radio playing in the background, and I can't tune out any noise and focus on one... I hear everything all at the same time. It makes my brain slow down, my speech slow down, can't follow a conversation.

I asked if I could use earplugs. She said "would they let you wear earplugs at work"? I said no... so she said then no. It was a horrible experience and I was able to do all of the physical stuff but ended up not being able to finish due to horrible head pain. The questionairres were brutal, followed by verbal questions continuously. The final report did state that I was unable to return to work at the time because I work in a noisy environment with flourescent lights. ( a high school).
I am dumbfounded that this guy said all of the things he said. I have tried many times to pretend I am fine, but I am not. It doesn't work.

I am in month 21 since falling backward from slipping on ice and hitting my head on concrete. The Neurologist assures me that I will heal completely. Some days I fear I won't, some days are not so bad. I still get very exhausted, have intolerance to light and sound, bad head pressure and pain, short term memory problems, motion intolerance, and depression. I wish so much to be able to sit and talk with others going through the same thing. I have six children and an AMAZING husband! (THANK GOD!!! THAT GUY DESERVES A MEDAL!!)

Great news. So happy for you!
