Welcome to NeuroTalk. Sorry to hear of your accident. I started my lifelong experience with PCS after a bike crash.

No helicopter rides. Just my dad picking up my limp body and racing to the hospital. I came too talking in slow motion.

You are experiencing a common cluster of PCS symptoms. It will help if you can take a break from as much of your busy life as possible. Your brain needs quiet rest. Also, read the sticky at the top about vitamins and supplements. It has a lot of good information. Check out the links at the bottom too.

Things will get better but you need to slow down for this to happen at the fastest rate. A busy life will just prolong your struggles.

Your neck is in need of a close examination. An upper cervical chiropractor is usually the best source for good upper neck diagnostics. Many PCS symptoms are made worse by upper neck injuries that have gone untreated.

Don't worry about your cycling. When the time comes and your brain is healthy, you can always start up again. You will be surprised at how fast you regain your conditioning. In time, you may be able to tackle a stationary bike to get in shape. Until then, your cardio work-outs should be be minimal.

My best to you.
