Default Wondering if anyone got this book/pdf on concussion.. And recovery..

Hi. I found this book.
Concussion - Table of Contents - Karger Publishers

And i'm interested in reading these chapters:
139
Treating Prolonged Symptoms of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: Neuropharmacology
Lercher K. · Camiolo Reddy C.
Niranjan A, Lunsford LD (eds): Concussion. Prog Neurol Surg. Basel, Karger, 2014, vol 28, pp 139-148 (DOI:10.1159/000358771)

----
149
Rehabilitation from Postconcussion Syndrome: Nonpharmacological Treatment
Nelson Sheese A.L. · Hammeke T.A.
Niranjan A, Lunsford LD (eds): Concussion. Prog Neurol Surg. Basel, Karger, 2014, vol 28, pp 149-160 (DOI:10.1159/000358775)
--

If anyone have info on that one, please send me a pm. Thanks allot.
edit: A bit to expensive for me to buy anyways.. But would want to know what it says on recovery.. Not sure if anyone have it, or know what it says, but it would be awesome to know.

I have never seen this. Looks interesting.

A better bang for your buck would be The Concussion Repair Manual: A Practical Guide to Recovering from Traumatic Brain Injuries - Kindle edition by Dr. Dan Engle. Health, Fitness & Dieting Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.

And the Dr. Doidge books.

From reading the contents and the names of the authors and References used to write the various chapters, I think this book would be overwhelming to the point of causing anxiety.

The pharmacology section 139 is most about headaches.

The non-pharmacology section 149 looks to be more about neuropsychological issues and using psychological treatments.

Neither appear to address the more common and frustrating PCS symptoms that persist for longer periods. It appears far more appropriate for the researcher and some concussion specialists than for patients. No wonder it costs $233 for a digital copy.

There have been studies that show patients who immerse themselves in a search for a cure tend to not do as well as those who take reasonable steps and get on with their lives.

Very few people can afford to try the many therapies mentioned in many of the books. A big challenge is finding any of the treatments discussed that can be administered by a properly skilled and experienced professional. Weekend seminar training does not make an expert. When 9 out of 10 offer a therapy because they can bill for it and only 1 in 10 are actually good, it puts many people and their budgets at risk. It one can afford to spend thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars trying to get treated, by all means, go for it.

After reading about Dr Dan Engle, some of his ideas scare me. His advocacy for alternative substances makes taking CBD oil look like sucking on a breath mint. His book sounds more like an encyclopedia of research and treatments.

Dr Doidge's book is intense enough.
