We all have that one subject in school that we struggle with the most. It is frustrating, but we can survive it. Ask for help.

We all have that subject in school that is difficult or not fun. It is the class we dread going to and the one we find difficult to understand.

What Happens When a Car Accident in Georgia Causes a Brain Injury?

If you are reading this, you or someone you love may have recently been involved in a car accident in Georgia that resulted in a brain injury. We understand how overwhelming and frightening this situation can be, and we want you to know that you are not alone. The emotions you are feeling confusion, worry, and uncertainty are completely normal when faced with such a life-changing event. Brain injuries can have a profound effect on your life, and it can be difficult to know what to do next. At this moment, you may be wondering how to get the compensation you deserve to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and the long-term care that may be needed. We are here to help you navigate this challenging time and ensure that your case is handled with the care and attention it deserves.

Understanding Brain Injuries After a Car Accident

Car accidents are often unpredictable, and their consequences can be severe. Brain injuries, especially, can occur when the head is struck or jolted during the impact. This type of injury can range from mild concussions to more serious conditions like traumatic brain injuries (TBI). The severity of the injury can greatly affect the recovery process, and the impact on a person’s life can be long-lasting.

A brain injury can cause a wide variety of symptoms. Some of the most common signs include headaches, dizziness, confusion, memory loss, and difficulty concentrating. In more severe cases, individuals may experience loss of motor function, mood swings, or even unconsciousness. The long-term effects can include chronic pain, cognitive impairments, and emotional distress.

The Importance of Seeking Medical Attention

If you or someone you love has sustained a brain injury due to a car accident in Georgia, the first and most important step is to seek medical attention immediately. Even if the symptoms seem minor at first, it is crucial to get evaluated by a medical professional. Brain injuries, especially those that are mild, may not show immediate symptoms, but they can worsen over time.

Once you have received medical attention, your doctor will provide a treatment plan to help you manage the injury. This plan may include medications, physical therapy, and cognitive rehabilitation. Some brain injuries require long-term care, which can be costly. In severe cases, individuals may need lifelong support, which can be emotionally and financially draining.

How Brain Injuries Affect Your Life

The impact of a brain injury can extend far beyond the physical symptoms. Many individuals who experience brain injuries face significant emotional, cognitive, and financial challenges. These challenges can include difficulty returning to work, a decreased quality of life, and the need for continuous medical treatment. In some cases, individuals may even require assistance with daily activities, such as bathing, eating, and dressing.

The financial burden of brain injuries can be overwhelming. Medical bills, rehabilitation costs, and lost wages can quickly add up. If the brain injury has long-term effects, such as the need for ongoing care or support, these costs can continue for years. Additionally, individuals who experience brain injuries may face difficulties in maintaining relationships, which can cause emotional stress for both the injured person and their family members.

Determining Liability in Car Accident Cases Involving Brain Injuries

When a car accident causes a brain injury, determining who is at fault is a crucial part of the legal process. In Georgia, like in other states, the at-fault party is typically responsible for covering the medical costs, lost wages, and other damages that result from the accident. However, proving liability in these cases can be complex.

Georgia follows a comparative fault rule, which means that the compensation you are entitled to may be reduced based on your percentage of fault in the accident. For example, if you were 20% responsible for the accident, your compensation could be reduced by 20%. However, even if you are partially at fault, you may still be entitled to compensation.

To establish liability, your attorney will need to gather evidence, such as accident reports, witness statements, and medical records. This evidence will help prove that the other driver was responsible for the accident and that their actions directly led to your brain injury. In some cases, fault may be shared between multiple parties, such as in accidents involving commercial vehicles or poor road conditions.

The Legal Process for Pursuing Compensation

After a car accident that causes a brain injury, you may be entitled to compensation for a variety of damages. These damages can include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other costs related to your injury. To pursue compensation, you will need to file a personal injury claim with the responsible party's insurance company or file a lawsuit in court if necessary.

The legal process for pursuing compensation can be lengthy and complicated. It involves negotiating with insurance companies, gathering evidence, and, in some cases, going to trial. Having an experienced attorney on your side can help ensure that your case is handled properly and that you receive the compensation you deserve.

Why You Need an Attorney

Handling a car accident case that results in a brain injury requires a thorough understanding of the law and the ability to navigate complex legal procedures. An experienced attorney will be able to guide you through each step of the process and help you avoid common mistakes that can harm your case.

Your attorney will also be able to handle negotiations with insurance companies, ensuring that you are not taken advantage of during the settlement process. Insurance companies often try to minimize the amount they pay to accident victims, and without proper legal representation, you may not receive the full amount of compensation you are entitled to.

In addition to handling the legal aspects of your case, your attorney can also provide you with the support you need during this difficult time. They will work tirelessly to secure a favorable outcome for your case, allowing you to focus on your recovery and well-being.

Havana Syndrome: Part 1

Havana Syndrome. Take a guess: how many Americans have heard of it, or by its new name, Anomalous Health Incidents (AHI)? 33%. A scandal that CBS/60 Minutes has done multiple programs on. 8 years of history, over 1500 victims, Russia and China and Cuba links. Personnel from the State Department, DOD, the Intelligence Community, and the CIA, attacked, sometimes more than once, in over 90 countries. Mysteries, coverups, not-to-be-believed but proven-true injuries, and careers destroyed. Children too. This is the stuff of Tom Clancy. And Netflix. And ongoing pain and suffering and Agencies walking away from the victims. “Treatments” that turn into throwing-in-the-towel, disrespect, accusations, pills, abandonment, lawsuits, deep resentment, and conflicting and even laughable official research, hearings, reports and stonewalling. Some good people are part of the mix, but fewer and fewer. On to the next crisis, hurricane, election, outbreak of violence. Sound familiar? Burn Pits? Gulf War Syndrome? Agent Orange? Toxic water? We’re writing about this because it has direct bearing on brain wounding, ignorant medical practitioners, failure to know the research, sloppiness, laziness, bureaucratic bafflegab, and lack of accountability. First some background and circling back to how this is another example of medicine and politics failing patriotic victims wounded in the line of duty and left to their own devices for coping with an uncertain and degraded future. That is, until some of them starting finding out about Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and other alternative therapies that are giving them their lives back. Beginning in 2014, US personnel in the US embassy in Havana Cuba began reporting a mysterious set of debilitating symptoms. Extensive reporting in 2016 reported symptoms beginning with a loud noise, ear pain, intense head pressure or vibration, dizziness, visual problems, and cognitive difficulties.  The reports over time and in many other places also included other symptoms: migraines, memory loss and trouble concentrating, ear ringing/tinnitus, dizziness, fatigue, nausea, anxiety, vision problems, balance issues, hearing loss, sleeplessness, and other neurological symptoms. Over the next seven years, as many as 1500-2000 personnel and family members from multiple countries reported similar phenomena and injuries in over 90 countries. Efforts began to describe the neurological manifestations that followed exposure to an unknown energy source associated with auditory and sensory phenomena. Results studying those with reported exposures demonstrated a similar pattern: individuals reported a similar constellation of neurological symptoms resembling brain injury. Over time, some of those individuals were referred to academic brain injury centers and DoD facilities for multidisciplinary evaluation and treatment. And the numbers of subjects continued to grow, along with multiple alleged attacks on the same individuals. In parallel, efforts were begun to discover the source of the injuries. From a diagnostic perspective, of course, the origin or origins of the multitude of symptoms would help in accurate identification of the insults and help in recommendations for treatment. Numerous committees speculated on various possibilities: Directed, pulsed radio frequency (RF) energy; Sonic weapons; Functional neurological disorders/persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD); Psychogenic or mass psychoses; Chemicals/ neurotoxins; Infectious agents; Vestibular migraines; and Multifactorial. Also mentioned were preexisting conditions, conventional illnesses, and environmental factors. One theory was that buzzing noises reported in several of the Havana incidents were the mating call of a particularly loud cricket, Anurogryllus celerinictus.  Contrary and more controversial opinions also varied; official reports were conflicting over time. Investigators found that efforts to understand this syndrome, now renamed “Anomalous Health Incidents” (AHIs), were hampered by politics, overarching national security concerns, the unusual features of the victims' accounts, incomplete information, non-standardized clinical testing, delayed reporting, and the sensitive/classified nature of the circumstances, individuals, and their work. At the end of the day, almost everyone agreed that something debilitating had happened to some of America's finest public servants and service members, their children, as well as foreign diplomats. The alleged incidents occurred overseas and in the US. Starting in 2023, led by the National Foundation for Integrative Medicine and the TreatNOW Coalition, a number of clinicians were contacted by US Government personnel complaining of AHI symptoms. After thorough vetting and analysis of the symptoms, the Coalition determined that the bulk of the growing list of callers had suffered Traumatic Brain Injuries, among their numerous maladies. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, unavailable and uncompensated by the USG, was recommended. Based on objective and subjective symptoms reported in the literature and interviews, HBOT was one obvious choice for treatment. Yet no one who came forward had been offered HBOT; virtually none had ever heard of it as a proven safe and effective treatment for TBI. What was clear, however, was the nearly unanimous reports from the victims that they have been left to their own devices and resources to get sustained help for their conditions. Far too many of the victims have had to quit work or, worse, have been "retired" or let go. The stories of neglect, disrespect, suspicion, endless bureaucratic paperwork lasting years, ghosting, and/or denial of claims have all led to too much gloom and sense of abandonment. They had approached us for help despite legislation intended to provide and pay for that help. Many of them had already spent tens of thousands of their own dollars to seek relief. Even before legislation, certain AHI victims were granted access to DOD facilities like the National Intrepid Center of Excellence (NICoE) where active duty service members with traumatic brain injuries were treated. Initially, personnel were sent to the University of Pennsylvania for diagnosis and treatment. Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was available through a host of VA and other civilian facilities. Yet none of the USG interventions focused on the frequently diagnosed traumatic brain injury. Interventions were focused on symptom palliation. Diagnoses for TBI became increasingly hard to come by. And the AHI victims continue to search for relief. Background on TBI, PTSD, and the use of Hyperbaric Oxygenation for Brain Wounds The use of HBOT for TBI and related symptoms has a decades long scientific legacy. Numerous peer-reviewed clinical trials demonstrate the safety and efficacy of HBOT for TBI. The largely pro bono efforts of TreatNOW and NFIM and over 150 clinics, researchers and practitioners have resulted in over 31,000 successes in over 150 TreatNOW Coalition HBOT clinics across the US. Reported symptoms from AHI echoed decades of history treating TBI and PTSD suffered by combat veterans. The similarities of AHI symptoms to TBI – whether from BLAST, IEDs, falls, training, accidents, or friendly fire – were virtually identical. The label attached to the various complex of symptoms was unimportant; HBOT clinicians treat the patient and reported disease. The symptoms reported by the AHI patients presenting to HBOT specialists bear a strong resemblance to those cataloged by the military health system and the VA. - Flashbacks, or feeling like the event is happening again - Trouble sleeping or nightmares - Feeling alone or detached from others - Losing interest in activities - Having angry outbursts or other extreme reactions - Feeling worried, guilty, or sad - Frightening thoughts - Having trouble concentrating - Having physical pain like headaches or stomach aches - Avoidance of memories, thoughts, or feelings about what closely associated with traumatic events - Problems remembering - Negative beliefs about themselves or others - Irritability - Feeling very vigilant - Startling easily - anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, and substance use also are seen with people who have PTSD. As a result of the presentations by numerous AHI victims, and the objective, subjective, and diagnostic record, some patients have been successfully treated with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy to help in their brain wound healing. Again, as decades of clinical experience and clinical trials demonstrate, helping to heal brain wounds leads in a majority of cases to a diminution or cessation of many symptoms. This is the first of a two part series showing the government, again, a way forward with HBOT in the case of a national emergency/ epidemic. ****************************** The TreatNOW Mission is ending service member suicides. Along the way, we have learned that we can end suicidal ideation, help end symptoms of PTSD, get patients off most of their drugs, and heal brain wounds to end the effects of BLAST injury, mild TBI Persistent Post Concussive Syndrome, and polytrauma from AHI and Burn Pits. Diabetic Foot Ulcers have become a major emphasis. www.treatnow.org Heal Brains. Stop Suicides. Restore Lives.
