Hello @meningone. Thanks for posting. Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect.

I'm sorry to hear you are suffering from such symptoms. Do you believe you have a TBI that stemmed from your BM? Have you been seen by your primary care physician?

Hello @jamienolson. I don't know if it's TBI, ABI, or really what it is? But yes, all this happened after my BM. I had none of thee symptoms before. At first I thought it was because I was newly ill, and still on a round of 10 days of IV antibiotics at home. But it kept going on & on. It's 7 months later and I'm still experiencing these symptoms. I have seen my PC, at 1st she was shocked I was still experiencing after effects, and didn't understand why I was. Then she said it was inflammation and should go away. I see her monthly and we are trying different preventatives and abortatives for pain, but she doesn't know why this is happening. I didn't know if anyone else on here has went through this?
