TBI/PCS symptoms for comment

[vini]

hi all

these are my symptoms for comment not sympathy, for me to know more about whats happening to me is a great help, I have found this forum a good source of info and support, I am only 7 months post damaged I know some of these symptoms maybe permanent but hope they will improve with time

I have a daily headache gets worse I have to lay down which helps
neck pain/ strange numb feeling behind the back of my throat/ salty taste back of my throat
a faint hissing sound there all the time, sometimes a loud ooowing sound in my ears

hand tremors, trouble with my right leg weakness if I sit for some time
feel disconnected
/ pain on concentration lack of/ forget what I am talking about or doing / find tv remotes in refrigerator, that kind of thing
stabbing pains in my temples right eye and fracture/ pate sites
feel sick for no reason especially when driving cant park the car strait/ balance problems
irritable /loose the plot
lack of confidence / going out on my own/ feeling isolated/ depressed
having to use my spell checker more than I used to LOL
hope this helps some one who is going through this to understand this condition, I also have a numb right side of my face due to nerve damage and vision problems
but have not lost my sense of humor
kind regards Vini

Hey,

Do you have any history of migraines in the family?
That's how it all started with me...
I didnt have as many symptoms as you..
but finally I was diagnosed with acute migraines and now I take Topamax for it...
Check your family history if you already haven't..
Hope I can help you with that! :hug:

I had a spate of migraines in adolescence and perhaps 0ne bad one every 18 months or so since but this is different I had multiple skull fractures and a csf leak i think some of my symptoms are due to low csf pressure seeing neuro next month I will see if they prescribe the same meds to me I am glad that it has improved your head aches thanks for your input
kind regards Vini :hug:
