issie Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 I wonder how many of us have had concussions in our lives - either before or after POTS. Did things get worse after the fact? Maybe, rattling our brains can cause some of the issues. Issie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enid Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 I had a serious concussion at the age of ~ 9 or 10. Playing on monkey bars with mittens with rock hard frozen sand underneath - fell from about 10 feet, unconscious for long enough for my playmate to panic, run home and get her father... overnight in hospital...etc....I have often wondered if there could have been a link - I don't think it is the only factor, but if I have a genetic predisposition, perhaps this was one of many multifactorial triggers. Sounds like incidence of concussion among us would be an interesting poll - anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tachyfor50years Posted April 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 The first time I had a concussion was at age 5, as I have had mentioned before, it took more than 4 decades to get a diagnose, long, bitter, hard and painful road!
