One of my doctors informed me exercise is great for recovery of closed head injuries. I loved hearing that and was so happy to go back to the gym even if it is in a very limited way. I went back again today and I have to say it felt awesome. Sadly, I […]
Good news and bad news
Published in April 14th, 2009
Well, the good news is that I am definitely feeling better. My headaches are more manageable and my dizziness has definitely improved. The bad news…I am losing my ability to hear anyone. I was deaf in my left ear, but my right ear I could hear out of, but with an echo and some distortion. […]
