Thanks Mark, I meant post concussion syndrome.

I am now regretting not having taken a full day off or two the day after my flight.

The bigger question is however when how can I help the healing as best as possible? Grateful for your thoughts on this. This is what I am doing:


- Physical therapy by concussion specialists (they work on my neck and jaw muscles once a week). I am going to see another clinic and go more often.

- Went to an optometrist that specializes in vision therapy. He recommended lowering the strength of my prescription reading glasses, I did that. He doubts it is due to my vision but vision therapy is plan B to him if PT fails.

- doing neck and back stretching. Sometimes I go to chiropractor when back pain is bad.

- supplements: magnesium, fish oil, B complex

- sports: swimming free style (i get out of the water every 10 mins or so to check whether I am dizzy), gym (light work out, I avoid all vibrating machines, avoiding treadmills and stationary bikes,..), I avoid running completely as this was a major trigger.

- I am almost completely avoiding alcohol, in the last year I perhaps had 5 drinks. Somehow beer is much worse than wine (??).

- meditation and reduction in stress. scaled back my work ambitions.

- emotional stress: quite a bit, still dealing with breakup and the stress from living quite a lonely life.

Any ideas? MANY THANKS
