This article is a classic attorneys' 'hired gun' opinion that twists and cherry picks the research. She completely ignore the decades of work by Dorothy Gronwall, Ph.D. of New Zealand that shows the long term effects of concussion.

This is why PCS victims involved in litigation need to read the web pages of Attorney Gordon Johnson at www.tbilaw.com and www.subtlebraininjury.com .

Default Orthomolecular nutrition for brain dysfunction

Here are two link to the research and finding supporting orthomolecular nutrition. My vitamin regimen was first presented to me by a specialist in orthomolecular nutrition.

http://orthomolecular.org/index.shtml

http://orthomed.org/

If anybody has questions about orthomolecular nutrition, please start a new thread in the main forum with your questions and comments. Please do not discuss orthomolecular nutrition in this 'sticky thread.'

This is a great link from a British site all about TBI's and the research going on for it.
__________________
I am a 36 yr old female who has played football, as a hobby, for 13 yrs. In July 2012, during a game I was slammed to the floor by two angry guys who hit into me so hard that one of them broke their ribs.
This knocked me back onto hard ground leaving me unconscious. I awoke to chronic head and neck pain, sickness and the inability to see or balance.
The paramedics made me walk to the ambulance, instead of placing me on a spinal board, where I was taken to the ER. I was hospitalised with suspected brain hemorrhage for 1 week, then on complete bed rest for 1 month, in a wheelchair for 2 months.

I have been left with PCS, moderate constant head pain, little short term memory, no memory of the accident, balance and sight problems, depression and exhaustion.
The worst problem is collapsing regularly. This has finally been diagnosed as Hemiplegic Migraines , these cause my brain to regularly shut down when I am tired and I then feel the full effects of a stroke (without the bleed on the brain!!) of which the symptoms last 2-4 days.
I have had 6 CT's, 2 MRI's and am under 3 specialists.

I believe everyday is one more towards improvement. Mainly I believe in the power of acceptance not the weakness of complacency or resignation.
