Default Extreme head sensitivity

Hi all! So here I am again. I've been struggling with extreme head sensitivity duo to concussions since 2008. However, the last year everything has been much worse!

I've just had 3-4 weeks with absolutely NO symptoms, but now they have returned again. The reason was that my sister accidentally bumped into my chair (I have a spinal cord injury, so I use a manual wheelchair most of the time - the spinal cord injury occurred in 2000 duo to an infection in my spinal cord and has nothing to do with my pcs). She did not bump very hard, but it made so much movement in the chair that I almost immediately felt it had affected my head (she did not bump near my head), but on the side.

How in the world is it possible to get all symptoms returning from such a mild impact? Am I crazy? Now I am afraid I will have to use another several months to get over this again. Seriously, I would rather die. I'm so sick of this, and I feel so horrible.

Now I've been in bed most of the time for a week, but the symptoms only worsen. Is lying in bed bad for recovery? However, I certainly don't feel well when I'm up either.
