Have you tried finding a concussion clinic for some better support ? Many colleges and high schools use them for their sports teams.
It is not uncommon for a concussion to take 6 weeks to resolve.
I can't imagine a 2 hour commute leaving you with any ability to work. You have a lot of challenges to overcome to work. I suggest you take it very slow.
My best to you.

Thanks Mark! I live in Long Island, NY and I work in Manhattan. I haven't looked for a clinic because honestly work really won't let me take any more days off. I don't have any more sick days left and I'm not anywhere near my quota. I leave my house at 6:45am and I get home at 8:00pm the earliest so I don't have time to really do anything.
I really like the president of my company and I would put them in a very tough spot if I left (FMLA or Short term disability) because I am the most senior employee here. In the end I feel like I have to do what is best for me.
This forum is awesome by the way.
