Poetrymom,

That makes sense. I start doing so well and I begin thinking I'm having a nice, steady, uphill recovery. Of course that's not true for PCS, but that's how I've missed my warning signs. My warning sign (which I didn't think about until now) is foggy head. On a daily basis, headaches tell me that I need to lie down.

Thanks for bringing up this important point. I'm doing better (about 9 days later). I'm looking forward to being an even better PCS person from now on. I just keep learning about this new lifestyle.

Are you still feeling as great as you indicate in your signature?

VB

In July 2013 ran into a metal bar at a playground, remained conscious. CT normal. Headache subsided after a week. In August woke with thunderclap-type headache in right side of head, right eye was droopy. Ever since had electrical-type pulsating all over when falling asleep and during sleep. Strong muscle twitching occasionally. Chest pain in heart region, front left neck region, and left shoulder. Strong heartbeat noise in head and occasional weird noises in ears. Taking Gabapentin to control nighttime nerves. Other symptoms: anxiety attacks, goosebumps, fine motor coordination problems, sleep apnea, headaches/migraines, fatigue, unclear thinking.

Update as of Jan. 2015 - almost all symptoms gone except for some tinnitus. Taking good care of myself except sometimes when I overdo it.
