- I value your opinions. I have a appointment with my neurologist on 2/14. He ordered an MRI on brain and neck which I had to be put under anesthesia. My TBI was 5 years ago, shearing on the left side of brain with several subdural hematomas. Left me...
- Couple of months ago I started water aerobics class and a water conditioning class. Wished I had found this form of exercise a long time ago. Most of the people are women and a little older than me but I don't care, it seems to be working. The good...
- Writing helps me to put thoughts into words and you get to edit what you write. If you haven't tried it give it a shot and then go back and read what you wrote a few days later. Wow do I find mistakes and am able to correct them. Some of these posts...
- My TBI was almost 5 years ago. Still have trouble walking (among other things) and doing stairs. My neurologist just put me back into physical therapy because of this and my balance and coordination has gone backward. I have been good about...
- I thought I saved it! But now looking for it I can't find it! I am looking for an Internet video on TBI. It shares the lives of three maybe four people and their lives after TBI. It was good, a little long say 30 minutes. It fascinated me, but...
- Writing seems to be helping me. I have now written 4 blogs about TBI.Seem them here:http://mytraumaticbraininjury.wordpress.com/2012/06/07/hello-world/See blue letters at top for next blog or previous blog. Read them all when you have the...
- My new therapy, maybe with enough practice I can turn these thoughts into words. http://mytraumaticbraininjury.wordpress.com/2012/06/07/start/Feel free to critique it, it does not bother me to be critiqued. It is the only way I can learn that works...
- I can't be the only one with fatigue. 4 years sinceTBI and I have still to regain my overall strength. I still tire easily. I exercise regularly go to the gym, walk (try) etc. but come early afternoon my wad is shot.Wheni ami getting tired my...
- I am lucky, my wife has been here to help me all the way. I am grateful. While at a rehab center I came across others who were not so fortunate. They had lost their spouses and significant others. I know I would be probably be homeless without my...
- Has anyone gotten their medical records for their TBI? I want to read mine. I want to understand why and what is going on. I was told that I had several subdural hematomas and shearing on the left side of the brain but what else did they see on my...
- After I learned that could walk, I made a goal to re-hike Sabino Canyon. I figured it would take 6 months to a year to tackle it. It took me almost 4 years but I finally made it ! At first it was 50 yards, then back to a wheelchair for a few months,...
- I find myself crying all the time for no apparent reson. I never cried pre-TBI. I didn't even cry at my brothers funeral.Also have trouble with anger, I lost my job because of anger. I know now that I shouldn't even attempted going back to work....
- I think this is a universal good that all people with TBI have. They are the most honest people on earth. Lying requires someone to remember too much and we (those with TBI) don't have that luxury. If we try to tell a lie even the smallest little...
- I remember being in rehab and there was a group of us who met in the middle of the night (I think just to around people). We would try to talk to one another, or try to put a puzzle together, or try to shuffle a deck of cards. I would stay 2-3...
- Anyone else had this diagnosis since TBI. My TBI 3/2008 and now getting diagnosis of loss of normal pitiuitary function. Seeing Endocroncologist (sp.?) next week. What should I expect? Medication? Just curious.
