Thanks for the responses - I'll check into the book. I've tried many things. Accupuncture and natural medicine. They didn't help. I saw a neuro vision guru many times as well. I saw the Opthamologist 10 times over the past year - had my perscription changed like 4 times. Saw neurologists. Tried a few different drugs but they didn't help and to be honest I don't really want to take drugs. Bottom line - no one could do anything for my vision issues and one day it just partially corrected. Generally vision is OK now. Didn't read except for work related reading for about a year.

I don't mean to be pessimistic here (hey - my dad's a doctor). The reality is in my opinion "time is the key". I don't think Neurologists know much other than wait until you feel better. It's not their fault - they just don't know anything about PCS. That's what makes it so difficult. It's the never never plan. Gotta do what you can and be thankful for that.

On the big spectrum the worst is over for me. The nausea is nowhere near what it was for the last year. I can deal with the constant headaches and feeling crap - it's the not knowing when or if you'll ever get back to normal that's the kick in the face. I am confident time will heal me and most of us - may take another year or two - who knows. That's the challenge with PCS - there's no timeline. As long as I'm not risking another hit to the head I'm going to do whatever I want and just deal with it. Like I said with my first post - "I'm over it". I'm sick of it running my life so now I'm going to run it. It's my enemy and I'm going to beat it....
