I highly recommend seeing a neurologist because those symptoms are serious.

Hello. My TBI was in 2018 and I have had a hard road to find the best doctors. I have had a few tell me, you are as good as you are going to get but I know there is more! In 2019, I found a neurologist that does neurofeedback and it helped my insomnia and fatigue. They provided brain coaching to help rebuild Nero pathways.

There is no specific medication for TBI. The brain heals on its own and medication is used to treat the symptoms. For instance, I now take ADHD medication for my concentration and impulsiveness issues from my TBI.

I also take an antidepressant for the depression and anxiety caused by my brain injury.
