Another Question about DBS
I’ve been following the latest discussions about DBS. It makes me feel hopeful. However, I have a pacemaker already and am wondering if that would disqualify me as a candidate. Has anyone ever heard anything about this? I plan to ask my MDS, but I don’t see him again until next January.

It got infected and in turn my bone had to be removed so I had to wait 6-8 months to make sure there was no infection. It wasn’t sore up until

Did anyone suffer from Anisocoria as a result of their brain injury?
I was assaulted and robbed at the end of December, which resulted in a subarachnoid heamoraage. About 6 weeks after the initial injury I had a really bad day, couldn't focus at all, really dizzy and extreme nausea. I looked in the mirror and one of my pupils was dilated quite a bit more than the other

DBS
Anyone that has had DBS, would you please share your experience? I’m highly considering starting the approval process. I’m 45, dx in 2008, and have exhausted medication options. I’ve tried diet, exercise, HDT.

DBS battery--affecting my symptoms?
I had DBS surgery 4.5 years ago. I have been alerted to the fact that my battery needs changing out by my DBS monitor, and I am having the minimal surgery on 4/24. I was diagnosed almost 20 years ago (I am now 70) and have stayed fairly functional. Until now. For the last couple of months, my symptoms

Have I Always Felt This Way?
For the first time in my life, I'm really TRYING to deal with my anxiety. I've always just endured it before and hoped it would go away. That means paying more attention to it, which I feel like has made my physical symptoms much, much worse in the short term. My head feels weird EVERY SINGLE DAY. Sometimes

HDT and dyskinesia
A friend of mine and a PWP has severe dyskinesia and I was wondering if the high dose thiamine protocol would help her? I understand that HDT is meant to prevent developing dyskinesia but I'm not sure if it helps decrease the movements once you have it. She was considering deep brain stimulation but

Freaked out! Please respond!
Hello everyone, Recently I’ve been having trouble with health anxiety and my main issue always goes back to “oh no what if I have a brain tumor”. I’ve been to the doctor like 4 times and none of them thought it was a brain tumor and they attributed it all to anxiety and sinus issues I’ve been having

Without proper blood flow the

cannot function, causing severe disability or

. Second impact syndrome can happen when a second concussion occurs hours, days or even weeks after the first concussion. The severity of the concussion often does not matter.
