Default No headaches?

Hi, I get some headaches, but not any migraines. My main complaint is pressure in my head, from overexertion, or stress. If I overdo it, I also have extreme fatigue. Getting plenty of sleep is so important. Does anyone else have pressure in their head ??? I haven't seen it mentioned much in this forum. I've had PCS for close to 8 mos now, and have seen some improvements with my ability to exercise. But not anywhere I'd like it to be. I used to bike and hike a lot, and work out in the gym a few times a week. Now, for exercise, I mainly walk, or use some light weights. If I try to run, the pressure comes on in my head. Using a treadmill also makes me dizzy and causes pressure.

My memory seems to be ok for the most part. But dealing with PCS, can put one on an emotional rollercoster ride... good days and bad days. I've learned for the most part to accept my limitations, and where I'm at right now. It took awhile for my family and close friends to 'get it', and understand what I'm dealing with.. But they have finally come around.. which makes it easier for me, and I feel more supported.

I have been reading this forum for awhile now. Sometimes, I find it depressing, as I want to read more about the people that get better. I am trying to stay positive, and hopeful that I will heal. I also see an osteopath weekly, for cranial osteopathy. It has definitely helped me. I'm also considering seeing a chiropractor that came highly recommended from a friend. An MRI also showed compressed discs in my neck. But I'm not sure how much he can help me.

Best of recovery to you all !
