you say in your synposis that you had exteme sensitivity to minor bumps in 2014 such as a hard pat on the back...has this got better with time? Do minor bumps now cause you an issue?

thanks

It has gotten better, but took a long time. I still try to avoid situations where I could be jarred such as driving on rough roads, boat rides in rough ocean, jumping, etc... I really don't want to test the limits of how far I can take this, the price is just too much.

I still get anxious after a big bump, but it's been getting better after I see that nothing happens to me.

EDIT: One thing that still bothers me is vibration, for example electric hair clippers buzzing against my scull, feels very unpleasant like my whole brain is buzzing inside. Same for using a hammer drill for example, there's just something about it. Doesn't seem to give me any symptoms except anxiety and headache, but I try to keep this to a minimum as well.

Hang in there
 
Hey Danny

I just wanted to reach out and say don't quit. Bad days are horrid. I remember them. Someone wrote about just being able to watch the grass grow. Oh yes, I remember that. All I could do for a time was watch trees and I still like watching trees now as i live in a recovery kind of life.

Keep searching for your answers. Every brain heals differently, but healing can happen. It's such a slow organ to heal.

the book Brainwashed helped me a lot and you could get it from the library or maybe someone can bring it to you.

Here's wishing you the healing feeling.

Poetry mom
