Noise Sensitivity
Ok guys. I need some suggestions. I'm feeling so much better, it's amazing. And then I get hit out of the blue by some random noise (in this last particular case people were rolling carts of I don't even know what down the mall and to me it sounded like a large airplane flying by) and go nuts. I have my earplugs but it doesn't seem to be enough at times. And it really is only certain things. I know that the church organ bothers me so I haven't been to church but just a few times in the past 6 months. But at work (in a mall) I never know what's coming next and while by and large I'm ok something hits me and then I'm not okay and it's anxiety and agitation and headaches all over again. I'm really sick of this. Thoughts? Suggestions?

What Happened: 3/6/14 I was leaning in to pick my phone off the floor of my car and hit my head on the door frame. No immediate problems but I woke up the following day with blurred vision, nausea, fogginess and memory issues. Headaches came the next day along with speech problems. CT scan was clear. Took a few weeks off work. Went back for half days for two weeks.
Then: 4/14/14 While still recovering from the first concussion I hit my head on the edge of my desk. Immediate headache, nausea and blurred vision. Doctor referred me to a neurologist who prescribed physical therapy for my neck, as I get incredibly stiff/sore necks daily which helps to bring on the headaches. Doctor also referred me to a counselor, who is helping me to cope with the anxiety and panic that has come up in my post concussion world. I deal with severe sensory problems and the frequent bout of aphasia.
And Then : 10/6/14 I was cleaning something (ok cat puke) up from underneath my new glass table when I stood up too fast right into it and voila, trauma #3. I was out of work for a month and a half this time. Noise problems, aphasia, etc.
