Yes, you can get better
Hi there!
There is a whole thread at the top in the stickie part about hope and PCS. Give it a look if you can stand screens for any time. I hope that lifts your spirits.
If your neck was hurt, that could be causing problems too. Somewhere here Mark in Idaho has put his protocol for icing the neck.
You had a lot of injuries in your accident. And no 2 brain injuries are alike and no 2 healings are just alike either.
Be gentle with yourself and keep asking questions here and even on facebook there are groups about PCS. Maybe no one doctor will have all the answers you seek. So keep looking and trying. I know I found some answers here for myself.
Hang in there!

[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.
