Default Introduction :)

Hi there,

I am new to the forums. Found these after researching a few newly diagnosed medical issues and their probable relation to TBI.

I look forward to learning and sharing my experiences as well.

Hi lolah and welcome. There is a forum dedicated to TBI/PCS you may wish to check out.

What Happened: On November 29, 2010, I was walking across the street and was hit by a light rail commuter train. Result was traumatic brain injury and multiple fractures (pelvis, ribs, skull). Total hospital stay was two months, one in ICU followed by an additional month in neuro-rehab. Upon hospital discharge, neurological testing revealed deficits in short term memory, executive functioning, and spatial recognition.

Today: Neuropsychological examination five months post-accident indicated a return to normal cognitive functioning, and I returned to work approximately 6 months after the accident. I still deal with periodic depressed moods but for the most part glad to be alive and looking forward to the rest of my life.
