My biggest issue after my TBI is the widespread burning pain. It's so severe and the lower half is worse then the top. Sometimes me feet will be extremely more intense then the other areas. But always 24/7 my body or nervous system doesn't ever get a break.
I also have a hard time finding drs that understand or how to even diognosis it. How can I help myself and my drs to get better? Its been like this since 2014 it started going a lil lower once I got on CBD oil and was on the 15 mg oxy every 5-6hrs and then I got into another accident hit the head the same place! And now I have stage 4 adrenal fatigue, multi organ Dysfunction, endocrine issues.
But even after all that new stuff. It's the pain i still need gone.
I also have inflamed trigger points that never seen to go down, I feel like I have something eating away at every layer of my body. Even the top of my skin burns. I need someone who understands this.
I was a nurse for 35 years before my TBI.. This is very true.
It can be just as hard to deal with the people who don't get that you have struggles because t has been years since your injury. n fact those closest don't even believe you have a brain injury because your not all bruised and swollen anymore and tend to try to go on with life the best yo can, at least in public.
So worried about my dad . What if he won't be just as before and how he will deal with that. . ❤
This Dr Dude in on target. I've myself a career lost to a TBI
