Hey. You can read more about my injury in my older posts, particularly http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread208673.html. I thought the least I could do was document it for posterity.

Basically, I went through similar things that you have while trying to get back on my feet as quickly as I could (total rest for 2–3 weeks, vitamins, supplements, fish oil, lecithin...). I have been doing much better now in my third and fourth month, but I have yet to shed the headaches. My doctor says it's not unusual after a strong hit to the head and that it could take a couple more months (quite a stretch from the "you'll be OK within 10 days" that they gave me in the ER).

It's nice that you swim. Physical activity should be conducive to neurogenesis. I was a very active (both sports-wise and intellectually) person before my concussion, but I have somewhat let myself go physically now. Time to do something about it. Especially after coming across articles like this one https://thevreelandclinic.wordpress....-lift-weights/. I found it yesterday, and it should partly answer your question about weight lifting.

Best of luck in your healing!
