    Subderal hemotobin
    I had a subderal hemotobin caused by bumping my head on our van while I was getting in (it hemoraged for 4 months before the operation). I am always tired, can't regulate my core body temperature, feel confused, depressed, headaches, weight gain, and weakness. My Dr. says nothing amiss in the CAT scan, but I recently saw just the tail end of an article on TV that said something about things that can go wrong as a result of a bump on the head. I think it was something about a gland or whatever not functioning properly, and that there is help. I know I'm lucky to be alive, but would be great to feel good again.

    Because the CAT scan was negative, then you can be confident that there is no subdural bleeding resulting from a tear in the veins that cross the subdural space. However, a subdural hemorrhage may cause damage to delicate brain tissue.

    If you have gone 4 months before surgery, you should ask your Physician or Surgeon about the possibility of this occurrence in your situation. The symptoms of a Traumatic brain injury can be classified as mild, moderate, or severe; physicians may only act upon the most severe or life-threatening cases.

    Hope this answers your question!

    In other words, I have to live with all the weird things happening to my memory, and body. Thanks, I guess I was hoping for something that can be treated with meds.
