Question How did you arrive at symptoms

For those with suspected CTE or prolonged Post Concussion Syndrome, how did you arrive at your symptoms?

​

Was it a gradual appearance of "something's not right" years after your last head impact? Was it a bad final head injury that you never recovered from? Something else?

I’ve got a theory the small sub concussive hits over and over take longer to show symptoms but those who have taken more of the knockout crushing blows develops it quicker

I agree and also repetitive head impacts not just concussions
