Transformative

I have suffered from concussions for quite a few years now. My first when I was 10 and have suffered 4 others since then. In November of 2016 I suffered a concussion that was not diagnosed properly. Months later I was diagnosed with Post Concussion Syndrome and convergence insufficiency. In November of 2017 I suffered another concussion and was then diagnosed with POTS. After trying several treatments with no success I recently went to Connecticut for a week of “brain camp” and now I am finally starting to feel like myself again.
