Am now seeing a specialist doctor, who runs a clinic on sleep and sleep disorders.

After telling me he had discussed my case with my referring family physician and asking me well over 15-20 questions, he said:

"I've seen thousands of head injured patients (he's been in practice for over last 2 decades), and you are the lst patient given the severity of your injury, you have had a faster recovery than others. You are at least working on the job (part-time). It's miraculous. Most of my patients have headaches 1-2 years still after their injury."

So I consented to being used as a case study for his medical research since the clinic is part of teaching hospital's work.

I wonder though, prior present public awareness about concussions, if there was just a lot of under-reporting. Injured patients who just gave up and live with their symptoms for several years.

My regime now under his orders are:

No computer screen time (even iPhone) for 4 hrs. before I go to bed. (which has been tough)
No coffee after noon.
No alcohol after 4:00 pm (Guess it's wine for lunch to celebrate dearie's birthday.)
etc.

Yes, according to him, my good health/fitness prior to my concussion and my attitude to get better, is contributing to a faster recovery than some other patients.
