Hi - Just following up on this. Did you go to CognitiveFX?? Am currently considering their 5-day program for my son (PCS since concussion in 1/15). Thank you.

I chose to go to UPMC in Pittsburgh, PA. I had my injury March 3, started at UPMC in June and I have been 100% pleased! My progress went from zero to substantial and I am very happy to report that I am able to return to working January 14, at a much less stressful job but I’m so happy to be able to get back to work! They have warned me that it will be very tough for me and I need to pace myself and take lots of breaks. But I’ll try and do my best! I’m sure working will be much better than doing all the therapy at home! Fingers crossed and lots of prayers! I very highly recommend UPMC Concussion Clinic. Look it up online and watch all the videos. Look up their CME- continuing medical education for physicians and watch the lectures. You can learn a lot!! It is backed by high quality medical research. Good luck to all. Get outside and get exposed to what makes you feel bad every day! It’s the best and only way to get better!!!

Thank you. I wondered if shanebox did go to CognitiveFX. Have read a lot about UPMC but thought they were for sports concussions only.

UPMC is definitely NOT just for sports concussions. They have many patients who come from long distances and they arrange all the appointments for you so you make the best use of your time. I very highly recommend them. We can exchange emails and phone numbers if you want to discuss it more. I wasn’t making any real progress until I started there and now I’m going back to work next week!!! It’s been 10 months for me. I’m at about 80% and still working on my therapy but making very good progress! I hope for the very best for your son!

Concussions 1 1 | ReThink Concussions
Great information here. Watch all the videos and read everything. You don’t have to go there to learn a lot about the best way to get better from a concussion even years later! |
