Default Recent PCS-relevant publications

Another 2 publications (you can view chunks of these online) -- both look good, but it would be great to have what they say about PCS subjected to some informed scrutiny :-)

Post-Concussion Syndrome: An Evidence-Based Approach by William D Boyd, 2014
(http://www.amazon.com/Post-Concussio.../dp/1499060866)

Brain Injury Medicine: Principles and Practice, 2nd edn, 2012, WD Zasler et al (http://www.demosmedical.com/brain-in...d-edition.html)

Default Chronic Post Traumatic Headaches

In my travels just now I found an interesting article about headaches associated with Post Concussion Syndrome.

Just thought I'd add on there in case it's of help to someone...

Default Research re NSAIDs + anti-depressants

There has been some media about a large South Korean study (published in the British Medical Journal) suggesting that the combination of NSAIDs (pain-killers) + anti-depressants (any type) can increase the risk of intracranial bleeding, esp. in men. Will not include links here, as the headlines are all pretty sensationalized, but easy to Google.

Independent from this, the US FDA has also recently strengthened warnings about NSAIDs, which many people take for things like neck and back pain.

While this has raised further questions and prompted calls for further research, doctors are being advised to closely monitor drug interactions, & pharmacists are being urged to educate patients.

Probably worth letting doc/pharmacist know if you are taking or thinking of taking this combination so that alternatives may be considered.
