I'm so sorry you are still suffering so. I'm almost at the 2 year mark and I can empathize at the long-term affects of pcs.

I had the reverse symptoms. I tried nortyptiline and felt foggy and had crazy side effects. I'm on topamax now for vertiguous migraines and am doing much better. Each patient is different, but it's important to fight for what works for you.

I agree with an earlier poster about being careful about titrating slowly on and off medications. Our brains are much more reactive to medicines. I get some of the rare side effects; not all but some.

I think there is a connection between food as being medicine as well.

I also did a big switch in diet-following some of the paleo diet and some chinese medicine philosophies. A lot of meat and vegetables (salmon, avocados, eggs)- very little grains and some fruit. IT's hard but I have noticed a big shift in my brain functioning.

Stopped gluten, sugar, and caffeine. I drink ginger and mint tea for nausea which has helped a lot. The stomach/spleen functioning seemed to be affected for me. Acupuncture is beneficial for neck pain and nausea.

Last for me is my vision-binocular is not working well and I get double vision after 20 minutes or so even with prism lenses and vision therapy. Who knows! Maybe there is something I can eat that will change this.

I hope you find some peace-
