My partner had the most horrendous fall in 2005 and fractured his skull (frontal lobe area).He was fighting for his life but thankfully he recovered.Friends and relatives are all asking what's happened to him because there is virtually a constant anxiousness about him. The repetitiveness that goes on telling me the same thing sometimes up to 5/6 times in a short while also the way he has to things in a OCD way if not he becomes more anxious. He suffered from vascular migraines before the accident which although bad he got through now he keeps saying and its getting worse no one understands me I have constant headache. The other thing that he says he describes to me but he calls" Brain rushes " almost like his brain his overloaded.
I moved in with my partner last year on a fulltime basis after my mother died of dementia which at times was very distressing for me because I got no support from her doctor or family. I am terrified of raising the matter with my doctor now of my partner and what I am observing on a daily basis and how it is getting worse. This is a new doctor and I just hope I am doing the right thing raising my concerns my gut is telling "I have to do this".
Any advice from anyone would be so appreciated?
