I've been dealing with mine for about a year and a half now, and find it difficult to find any information about this effect of PCSs at all. It feels as though I have had to navigate the recovery process myself and experiment with what exacerbates the headaches and what diminishes the symptoms. I just wish there were others out there who could share their direct experience with it so that we can help each other out, give some pointers etc..

So far I have found the two worst things that make headaches inextricably worse and set my recovery process back many months are oily foods (high concentrations of vegetable or fish oils), and vigorous exercise. I have no doubt a lack of sleep worsens it too, but sometimes my headaches are cracking pains that wake me up out of my sleep, so it is hard to sleep as well.

Any advice would be appreciated.
