I'm worried, not seen him on the boards and sent him a PM.
Hope he is okay? |

2002 - hit my head on a washer door while doing laundry. Recovered in 24 hours (was 7 months pregnant at that time) 2005 (maybe 2006) - kitchen cabinet (it took me ~ 1 week to recover) 2009 - refrigerator shelf, recovered in 1 month summer, 2011 - metal rail, the life-changing concussion. Black out for ~10 minutes, spent ~2weeks in bed (wasn't able to even use a bathroom by myself). Made a complete recovery in 2 months. October, 2011 - washer door again. Recovered in 1 months. March, 2012 - kitchen cabinet again. Suicidal depression. Was diagnosed with OCD. Severe anxiety. Was completely recovered in 4 months, celexa is a magical pill. After that I managed to go almost 1.5 years without a concussion! Was at a completely symptom-free stage, started volunteering at my kids' school again. I was living a happy life. Then, August, 2013 - fell down the stairs, broke my ankle badly (my surgeon said that he literally has never seen anything that bad ever before and he's been practicing for more than 20 years). September, 2013 - my son was hugging me and we bumped into each other. Result - complete return of all of my symptoms., no improvement with time. Severe depression again. 7/7/2014 - hit my self on a metal shelf again while trying to clean. I'm not clumsy. It's just the floor hates me, the tables and chairs are bullies and the wall gets in the way. |

I hope he is ok too. His profile shows he logged in today at
3:44 pm. You can check profile pages and last log in shows Under the name. I hope his new found success with his new medication Is still giving him relief from symptoms.

As Mark has been posting on other threads here today I am just noting that for those that have been concerned about him.
