You are doing a lot!
Wow, from the sounds of it you had a very bad brain injury. (I refuse to call these concussions anymore)
You are doing A LOT! Think of it. You are back to work can expres yourself, but still get foggy.
Is there anyway you can car pool or take public transportation to work in order to keep your brain healing in the ways it can and will for awhile?
I am not expert on these brain injuries, but it strikes me you could maximize your time at work and home if you could reduce that drive time somehow.
Take care

[SIZE="1"]What happened. I was in a car accident 2-23-2013, and got a mild concussion from it. I had some time off for brain rest, got somewhat better, but slipped into PCS in March 2013.
Symptoms I had: dizziness, light and sound sensitivity, fatigue, tinitis, occasional headaches and migraines,
Symptoms as of 5--2013: poor sleep, tinitis, some confusion /short term memory blanks, balance. The other symptoms are mostly gone, but flare up if I OVERdo something.
Therapy I had: vestibular
3 months in: I could drive more and for longer distances. I felt like a younger, happier version of myself and I feel so blessed to have this feeling.
9 months in and I am working full time. I do get tired, and some sound and light sensitivity from time to time, but mostly I am over most of my symptoms.
I pray every day and I m praying for your recovery.
Over a year in: I can multi task (limited) and have humor in my life. But when I am tired, I am very tired.
