How Can Poor Concentration And Depression Be Treated?

My son is 30 years old, he played both high school and college football, 2 years ago he was tested in Iowa City through the University and they felt he could possibly have CTE. Does Mayo Clinic have any specialists in this type of condition?, he is currently having a very hard time with concentration, he is very depressed, chronic pain and mood swings, Iowa has no one that we have found that can help. We are just looking for any kind of help we can get at this point.

Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.

You have problem of poor concentration and depression that may be because of vitamin b12 deficincey. Check your b12 level. Chronic b12 deficincey may cause lack of concentration and depression.

Thyroid problem may cause this problem.
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder may ruled out.Low blood sugar level may cause this problem.
Proper history and investigation helpful for diagnosis.
Consent a physician for further diagnosis.

I hope my guidance is helpful to you.
Take care.
