I have been suffering from PCS for abut 4 months now and am concerned that the coming and going of my symptoms is not normal. I have been resting and doing light exercise here and there when I feel up to it (consists of riding the bike for a little bit.) I'm trying my best not to push myself, yet my symptoms still return. Is that normal?

I am taking a vitamin regimen every morning that consists of fish oil, B complex, D3, multi vitamin, and have recently started trying gingko.


Some days I wake up and feel myself again and get so excited that I am recovering and nearly forget about my lows. This usually lasts a day or 2 and then I wake up feeling as if I am back in day one of my recovery. (nausea, headaches, loss of appetite, anxiety, depression, irratibility, inability to concentrate, all that fun stuff.)

I write in a journal daily to keep track of my symptoms and it seems like nothing triggers it. The symptoms do not return after exercise or anything specific which is the trouble for me. Sometimes a gym sesh will do it, sometime they appear 3 days after working out, and sometimes I am doing nothing at all when they return.

Does anyone have any advice for this? I'm trying to do everything I can to recover speedy and properly, but do not know the correct steps to take to move forward and continue to progress.

I have given up caffeine, fast foods, extensive work outs, alcohol, and all of that fun stuff, yet my symptoms still come and go.

If anyone has any other helpful info or useful exercises that have helped them out I would really appreciate the advice because I am going crazy over here!
