3 yrs in with PCS it’s not an easy road.
I hear you on that but stay strong.
Only one year here… and you are so right not easy. Wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
@@hummingbird7713 you have to believe it will get better. Look up Cognitive FX in Provo UT, the only place that truly understands treating concussions and TBI
I have seen and checked it out. Indiana has 2 places. One in Fort Wayne and one in Indianapolis. So I have emailed both. I lost my job and insurance . So I just got insurance so fingers 🤞
6 yrs in and no PCS treatment places in California Bay Area! 😢
My 6 year has been going through this for 4 and half years. Started at 19 months😓🤯🫣
