No Such Thing: A Memoir of "mild" TBI and my 20-yr Recovery Had a concussion that won’t heal? Tired of being disbelieved? You’re not alone and you're not crazy. This book can help.

One thing I've been reminded of during my #concussion recovery is that every #braintrauma is as different as every person. And that means different things will help different people with #mTBI. Trust your perceptions. Do what works for you. Believe in yourself.

Beyond the Average: What Daily Cognitive Fluctuations Reveal About Chronic Concussion | JD Supra When most people think about the lingering effects of a concussion, they picture persistent headaches, light sensitivity, or forgetfulness.

Asking people to define their level of pain or impairment as if it's one thing all the time is silly. There's too much daily and even hourly fluctuation to answer that. This study of folks with chronic #mTBI supports that. #concussion #braintrauma #braininjury www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/be...
