So, basically...
Three years ago, I was in a serious car accident. There was some kind of fluid leak around my brain—cerebrospinal fluid, maybe?—and a small skull fracture. I spent some time in the hospital, and they eventually told me everything seemed fine...
Before the crash, I was 6'0" and about 175 lbs. I was in great shape too, an athlete, pretty muscular for a 22-year-old...
But after being stuck in the hospital for two weeks, I dropped down to maybe 143 lbs...
Since then, I’ve tried everything to get back on track. Hit the gym, stayed consistent with training, focused on nutrition, vitamins—you name it, I did it. But I just can't seem to push past 165 lbs... No matter what I do...
Another thing is my immune system feels like it's completely shot. Out of twelve months in a year, I’m sick with a cold at least four of them. It wasn't like this before. I used to be able to run through a snowstorm and never catch anything... now, I'm constantly exhausted and weak even when I haven't done a thing. And the headaches... they happen way more often now.
I've seen all sorts of doctors. We've checked my stomach, my brain, my heart, bloodwork—everything. They all say everything looks normal... which makes me think they just have no clue what's actually happening. Some of them even brushed me off, telling me things like, "Kid, just eat your vegetables and stop worrying"...
So, I'm reaching out because I really need some help. Any advice, any thoughts, anything at all... I just want to get my body back to where it belongs. Right now, I feel like a walking skeleton, and my health is just... not there.
Thanks
