If its 6 weeks since your injury you shouldnt be to worried. PCS doesnt just disappear and thats important to know. Its a progress that slowly gets better.

When you feel ok and want to live as usual it is important to keep in mind that you still have PCS and that you need to hold your horses. Its so much better to use your energy in a stable way instead of laying in bed for a long time and then try to live a few days as normal.


I am somewhat in the same situation as you right now. Have had PCS for soon 3 years and its has progressed for the better. But I have had two more small injuries to the head that has made me worse.

I have been dizzy and foggy with a headache for 2 weeks now, not been able to go to class or do much social stuff.

I have had a period of stress and to much activity that has sent me into relapse big time.

Im worried right now that this is a new injury that has occured because of exhaustion. My doctor has told me that over-stimulation that causes a big reaction can be directly damaging for the brain.

I also need something to keep me positive. I try to focus on that time makes you better. I have been in this situation a few times now and I always feel like Im gonna die. But it gets better....not good but better.
