Hi,

Wow, reading your post was like I had typed it myself. I am 18 months PCS, from a rear ender as well.

The headache is the same (was told it is Occipital Neuralgia with that pattern you described and now get Botox for it), dizzy, vertigo (mainly on elevators now), low energy, fog, and I had just over a year off work, rib/shoulder/neck injuries, etc.

I have been lucky enough to get into a brain rehab program here in Vancouver and they are teaching me tools to better regulate my energy, how to cope with overstimulation, and any challenges I face at work.

This concussion has been the worst one of the many I have received, and I had no idea that I would still be dealing with it. But, I have learned to appreciate many things in my life. I miss having energy, pain free days and the ability to get my heart rate up - but, I have access to good doctors, therapists, programs and such.

It is so good to see that you can be positive, that can be difficult after going through a long term issue. So thank you for expressing that!!!

I am realizing that things may not get better, but I can be better at managing them. Which in the long run makes for a balanced life.

Best of luck!
