I just hit my six month mark. No offense, but when I first read posts in this message board I thought to myself "I'm not like these people". I thought I was going to be fine and get over it in a couple weeks. That did not happen...

I am better than I was six months ago, thats for sure. But there's one thing I can share with everyone on this site, and that's the medical communities lack of knowledge on consussions and their subsequent poor treatment options.

I have been "cleared" of any kind of physiological PCS by Dr. Leddy in Buffalo's Sports Concussion clinic. However I currently still suffer from headaches (everyday), banding feeling around head, vision problems, difficulty concentrating. I was told that my issues are psychological.

I currently take Celexa 30mg and see a Therapist. I have been working fulltime, even since the injury. I have also recently returned to volunteering at the Fire Department. I know that most people will say that I'm probably over-doing it and that's delaying my healing. But I would rather feel like crap and do stuff, than sit inside and feel like crap anyways.

So, six months in, who know how long to go?
