Hi everyone

I just wanted to post a quick update, mostly to encourage others, and partly to ask others' experience further down the road.

Regarding my initial symptoms, the only one that really remains is globus/a slight sinking feeling in my stomach once I work for a certain period of time, though I think I'm also able to self-generate this through anxiety. I'm working probably 6-8 hours/day in front of the computer now, and I do fatigue more as the day goes on. Has anybody else had experience with this? Based on how things have gone for me, I'm sure I'll be able to put in a 12 or 14 hour day (hopefully only during very busy times) without an issue maybe 4-6 months out from now, but certainly I can do what would normally be expected by an employer. Of course, I'm my own employer, so things aren't quite that simple.

I'm also exercising at full tilt (I'm a competitive squash player and got the injury on the squash court, and didn't return to that until probably a month and a half ago). I do find I get slightly dizzy on the squash court, but it gets worse as the rally goes on, and then once the rally ends, it resets. My squash goggles are also now 2 prescriptions out of date, and I was having slight dizziness issues there before the concussion, so there's that to think about. Physio helped tremendously, and I don't really ever feel that my brain is bouncing in my head anymore--so it probably was a neck issue.

I continue to keep a close eye on my convergence insufficiency, and have found it's improved drastically (in sunlight, I can probably see without double vision 3-5 cm away). This, to me, is the most objective bellwether of my condition, and I'm very encouraged by how good it has gotten.

The long and short is that there is hope for the slower recoveries--essentially of making a complete recovery--but it probably will take longer than you or your doctor expected.

Thanks for all the support, everyone. Regards

Rob
