SS is Superficial Siderosis. A neurodegenerative condition usually caused from a brain bleed or spinal fluid leak. Diagnosed by MRI… if you are lucky enough to find a doctor capable of recognizing it. Only around 300 or so known cases in USA. Dr Neeraj Kumar at Mayo/Rochester is a specialist for this condition.

Oh wow, okay. So a concussion might cause a brain bleed or spinal fluid leak (which could go undetected without an MRI and physician who's looking for this) that might result in SS and symptom of vertigo a year post-concussion?
