Listening and sound
Hi there
I would suggest that you just let go of listening to the podcasts for now. It sounds like they are overwhelming your injured brain and thus the headache. That headache is telling you that listening is too much comlex work right now, so, just let it go.
I found a lot of comfort in classical music, but the if sounds got to me, had to turn it off.
There was a time too when conversations were soooooooo tiring and I had to just not have too many.
As for pain relief, I have learned too that the active ingrediant in Advil is better for your brain than what is in Tylenol.
Good luck!!

[SIZE="1"]What happened. I was in a car accident 2-23-2013, and got a mild concussion from it. I had some time off for brain rest, got somewhat better, but slipped into PCS in March 2013.
Symptoms I had: dizziness, light and sound sensitivity, fatigue, tinitis, occasional headaches and migraines,
Symptoms as of 5--2013: poor sleep, tinitis, some confusion /short term memory blanks, balance. The other symptoms are mostly gone, but flare up if I OVERdo something.
Therapy I had: vestibular
3 months in: I could drive more and for longer distances. I felt like a younger, happier version of myself and I feel so blessed to have this feeling.
9 months in and I am working full time. I do get tired, and some sound and light sensitivity from time to time, but mostly I am over most of my symptoms.
I pray every day and I m praying for your recovery.
Over a year in: I can multi task (limited) and have humor in my life. But when I am tired, I am very tired.
