Default Not recovering from your concussion? Undiagnosed sleep apnea could be the problem.
I received a concussion and after a year I still had not recovered. I went to countless doctors and spent an enormous amount of time trying to get help, but nothing worked.

I want to encourage anyone struggling to recover from a concussion to go get tested for sleep apnea ASAP! 2-3 months after I got treated for sleep apnea (CPAP) my concussion symptoms disappeared.

I’m certain that my inability to recover from my concussion was directly tied to my body not getting quality sleep.

I have this theory that there are thousands of people out there that are not recovering from their concussions due to sleep apnea. Please help me spread the word!

Thanks,
Brian
