Maxcjs101 sounds like your injury is fairly recent? If so then be careful of pushing yourself both physically and/or mentally. It took me a long time to figure out what was causing my setbacks and I got much worse when I overdid it a while back.
Do you still work full time? If so, have you noticed that the symptoms get worse when you work?
I'm still experiencing symptoms in my signature, main things are computer screens, inconsistent sleep (can never get a good night sleep), anxiety/panic thankfully it's not constant anymore, dizziness almost gone (mostly when I walk), sometimes having issues concentrating but I think it has to do with anxiety.

12/02/2012 - Light concussion at boxing practice. Ended up having PCS for about 3 months.
March 2013 - Thought that since most of my symptoms resolved I could start having fun again.
Went snowmobiling once (didn't hit my head) and concussion symptoms returned and got even worse than before.
June 2013 - accidentally bumped my head against a deck railing, and had a month-long setback.
November 2013 - drove to work after a big snowstorm and the roads were very rough, ended up having another setback.
2014 - Having setbacks after coughing/sneezing too much, or someone slapping me on the back, or any other significant jarring.
Feb 2014 - Started seeing Atlas Orthogonal chiro - most helpful doc so far.
June 2014 - Two months of physical/visual therapy - no noticeable improvement.
September 2014 - Diagnosed with Perilymph Fistula in right ear.
November 2014 - Fistula surgery (switched to left ear before the surgery after additional testing).
January 2016 - Quit work to "work" on figuring out PCS, so far it seems that eyes/vision issues are the most contributing factor, especially computer work.
Current symptoms are: inconsistent sleep patterns, headaches, vertigo/dizziness, anxiety/panic attacks, mental fog/problems with concentration, problems with computer screens.
