Solo,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. I have good news and bad news for you. The good news is with time and proper rest and nutrition, you should get much better. The bad news is brain injuries never heal 100%. You may be able to return to 100% of your previous life activities but you will always have some residual damage and occasional symptoms, especially when under stress.

You need to slowly return to activities of the past. Do them at a lesser level then wait to see if symptoms return the NEXT day. There is often a day lag between the over-doing it and the return of symptoms.

Get that sinus infection cleared up. They can be miserable. My wife was treated on and off for years then had maxillary surgery where they found the bones around the sinus had been eaten away by the infection. They physically debrided and cauterized the remaining infection.

Maybe a Neti Pot will help with the healing. The toxins are so close to brain blood flow that they can cause neurological problems.
