Im gonna see if this (sinus pressure) med is gonna help if it doesnt then I'll def. go see a Dr

Try the Advil Sinus medication in the orange/yellow package. You should get some relief. You may have to sign a release indicating that you will not use the product to make illicit drugs (e.g. Tina).

Thanks for the resounding vote of confidence on the condition of my brain.

When and if a doctor advises that I have, I am going to have myself referred to you for a second opinion.

Don't bother I'm not an MD. 1/5th is just a massive amount of tissue loss and unlikely.

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal labotomy...

Now would be a good time to cue up "One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest"

anything w/ pseudoephedrine should do the trick.

Thanks for ruining my self-image Siggie. You should consider psychiatry. As a profession, not for yourself.

And thank you for the career advice however after nearly a decade in college+ I am ready to be done. Plus I considered and decided against psychiatry a long time ago.

I don't study the brain. I study memory. Yes, blows to the brain can cause memory loss. Usually retrograde amnesia for the minutes/hours preceding the injury (consolidation is interrupted), but this would vary depending on the trauma. I'm guessing it was relatively minor if you've not already had the question addressed by a doctor?

don't like going to the doctor. the injurie(s), first time I was hospitilized, another time I left the hospital in protest. another 2 or 3 times I just did not bother. now years later I realize that there are some gaps over a span of years corresponding to the the concussions, so I was curious based on your comment.

Re: Ankap - Vigilante is history!

How big are these gaps?

Re: Ankap - Vigilante is history!

Don't know for sure but there are far too many things my wife or brother remember that I don't recall. However, I just figure they may not be things worth remembering.

Re: Ankap - Vigilante is history!

Well we don't remember everything. That's not necessarily related to a concussion. Most concussions would only affect the memory for the event itself (i.e. what was happening just before the injury). You're right; we don't remember a lot of stuff because it's just not important.
