Default Where am I in the healing process? Please Assess

Hi,

It's been 18 months since I slipped and fell on the ice. I was on ice skates and wearing a helmet, but I went heels up and fell on my back and the back of my head whipped back and hit the ice. 1 year ago I re-injured it and the symptoms were worse than the initial injury.

At the end of the day yesterday I developed a headache. It doesn't happen everyday (I'm currently not working). I would like to describe what I did and see if someone can relate to my current condition.

In brief;

-I met my my neurologist and spoke for about 30 minutes. It was a long conversation.
-1 hour later I met my a therapist. This was another discussion where I had to articulate thoughts and it was a 1hr appointment
-Total mid-day driving time was about 1.5hrs
-I ran a few errands during the day as well

In reflecting on the days events it becomes clear to me that using my brain to articulate thoughts in conversations seems causing me headaches.

My question is now that loud noises and bright lights don't seem to be triggers anymore am I in the final healing stages now that I'm just getting headaches from conversations for the most part?

Thank you for your help.
