NF,

It took me a good while to recognize the difference between anxiety and actual symptoms, pay attention and you will figure it out.

Concussions can change life in very uncomfortable ways for awhile and the brain does not soon forget those nasty symptoms, it spends a great deal of effort trying to protect us as we regain our lives back.

My guess is if you can withstand the pounding of running up and down a court and the jumping associated with basketball you are just fine when the ball hits your head.

As Mark said don't be foolish but don't baby it either, you will heal and life will go on so allow it.

Good luck at school and stay away from the drinking, good way to get hurt again.

Bud
