I wish I had known:

Acupuncture helps a lot, but getting treated for the headaches directly can make them worse.

Turmeric can help with chronic inflammation.

Pouring cold water over one's head can provide temporary relief.

Get checked for a neck injury.

There is no point that the brain will be healed nor when no more healing will occur.

A lot of doctors no nothing about pcs.

Sometimes one's emotions are completely unrelated to reality. This doesn't mean that one is crazy.

Even if the pcs does not improve, one's ability to cope and techniques will, including the ability to circumvent using the injured part of the brain.

Headaches and anxiety are closely related. Alleviating one often times alleviates the other.

Everyone is strong enough to accept pcs.
