I don't think there is any way that people who have not had this PCS could understand what it's like. It's been almost five month for me and I still feel lousy every day. Mornings are usually the worst, although I never had any problems with fatigue. Headaches and dizzyness are terrible. I was given gabapentin (Neurontin) by a neurologist for nerve pain and the side effects were awful, so I quit taking it after nine days and I feel like it has set me back by several weeks. Now my head hurts more and I am more dizzy that I was before. There is no magic pill!!! It did work for the head discomfort, but it was not worth it.

The computer also increases my headaches and noise was a big issue with me -- still bothers me some. Does anybody else have problems with bending forward, like emtying the dishwasher or dryer, it hurts my head.
