117 - Concussion Phenotypes and being your own Health Care Advocate

This week, I want to go into detail of the different types of concussion symptoms and what different types of specialists you can follow up with in your recovery. In the second half, I talk about advocating for your own health care when you are injured, particularly if you have bad health insurance. I want to help you with avoiding getting shuffled around, asking the right questions, finding out the different options you have, getting multiple opinions, and when you are FINALLY in front of the right specialist, making sure you get the right treatment.
