GOTCHA

I've been seeing MD by the dozen since my TBI but none of them ever even suggested that my brain damage might be close to the damage usually seen to the brain of a victim of stroke to the heart, in my (broken) logic and mind it makes sense that when the brain doesn't receive its normal oxygenated blood circulation plenty neurons die, just like when too much blood pressure is given by blood accumulation in specific areas of the brain (motor cortex in my case) I truly cannot believe that a medicine illiterate like myself can figure out all independently that as far as damage to the brain there's no difference between too much pressure of blood and too little quantity of it, the result of dead neurons is identical.
I'm now planning to talk about already existent (and FDA approved) medications to treat something (stroke) very well known and extensively treated by decades already.
In thinking about this, I remember to have asked few months ago to be treated like if I had Alzheimer (brain inflammation like TBI) but given that my suggestion had been turned out again I never tried this.
Given that I now have a woman as neurologist I'm hoping that my "Eve theory" will make its effect and I'll receive a very common and very used medication to help my injured brain recover its plasticity (after a 10 years long forced nap).
Given that my organ brain has already somewhat healed by itself, don't be surprised if - sooner than later - I'll be doing the double W = walk + work.
