I've scanned through the vitamin thread and didn't see this addressed - if it's answered elsewhere, please feel free to re-direct me. My question is whether the vitamin regimen should be altered according to one's symptoms. Also, is there an order in which you should add them to your protocol and/or a timeline for adding them? I'm hesitant to add everything at once in case something doesn't agree with me.
I had a concussion 10 months ago, most likely from a whiplash, but I also may have hit my head. After feeling as if I were never going to get over this, in the last couple of weeks I've had some positive results (a few days with 4-6 hour stretches with no headaches, better results on some of vision testing at PT, and just generally feeling better and having some energy). I still have a low-level headache a lot of the time, some sensitivity to bright light (didn't notice so much until our warm sunny weather started), I get dizzy very easily, and my balance is still a little shaky during certain PT drills - not so noticeable in everyday life, though. I also still have neck and shoulder pain that I'll probably re-address with an ortho PT once I finish with the Neuro PT. I asked my Dr, and all he suggested was fish oil and vitamin D. (Unrelated question - how do you add the "what happened" section to your profile?)
Many thanks,
Diane
