Hi Bob,

I do not have hydrocephalus, but I have been suffering from Post Concussion Syndrome for almost three and a half years now. This was my second concussion at the time, and it happened just from a simple fall on ice in the parking lot at my work. I was otherwise, completely healthy and had no prior symptoms of vertigo, migraines and functioning problems that I deal with on a daily basis. I can honestly say that I haven't really found too many good answers about this problem, and it is so frustrating to basically hear, "We'll just wait and see what happens. You should get better eventually." After having this for so long now, my Neurologist has kind of changed his tune though and said I may be stuck with this for life. This to me, is something I can't imagine living with since I still can't drive, work and still have all of the normal concussion symptoms to boot!

I certainly agree that finding the right doctor can make all of the difference, especially one who understands! Anyways, I hope you are feeling better by now or have found some more answers. I am still on the search for a good doctor, as I feel I have not yet found the answers I am looking for. Post Concussion Syndrome is very frustrating and I would never wish it on my worst enemy! Good Luck.
