When you run, try running with ear plugs in so you can hear your foot plant. Then, you can modify your stride and foot plant to reduce the impact. It may require a different shoe. Many runners land on their heal. Landing on your toes can soften the foot plant. Landing with your knee slightly bent can also help.

Found out this week that I'm still sensitive to jarring/vibrations after a short easy ATV ride this past weekend.

Not exactly sure if it's my neck or something else (not having any major neck pain), but been feeling much worse these past 5 days, had to stop everything and stay at home. It's slowly getting better, but I'm definitely not doing something like this for a while.

March 2013 - Thought that since most of my symptoms resolved I could start having fun again.
Went snowmobiling once (didn't hit my head) and concussion symptoms returned and got even worse than before.
June 2013 - accidentally bumped my head against a deck railing, and had a month-long setback.
November 2013 - drove to work after a big snowstorm and the roads were very rough, ended up having another setback.
2014 - Having setbacks after coughing/sneezing too much, or someone slapping me on the back, or any other significant jarring.
Feb 2014 - Started seeing Atlas Orthogonal chiro - most helpful doc so far.
June 2014 - Two months of physical/visual therapy - no noticeable improvement.
September 2014 - Diagnosed with Perilymph Fistula in right ear.
November 2014 - Fistula surgery (switched to left ear before the surgery after additional testing).
January 2016 - Quit work to "work" on figuring out PCS, so far it seems that eyes/vision issues are the most contributing factor, especially computer work.

Current symptoms are: inconsistent sleep patterns, headaches, vertigo/dizziness, anxiety/panic attacks, mental fog/problems with concentration, problems with computer screens.
