I just want to think that its not my brain that can't handle it.

I was in a noisy restaurant and I did fine thru it..but felt awful for 2 days afterwards.

I had a friend over chatting for 2 hours just now...and I feel ok...just wondering how that is going to pan out for me later -- but like I said it was ONE friend over. I have symptoms, but no worse than normal.

Is this why I can't tolerate tv for too long...is the constant conversations keeping up with -- not the bright tv screens etc.???

Do you just get tired and feel headache come on --or other symptoms? I get this weird feeling thru my body and sometimes my teeth start to tingle, jaw area, back of head hurts down my neck.

ONE more thing -- do you have any suggestions for me other than earplugs -- going to a family function on sunday for a few hours. ANY ideas? I can't really go for a walk as its going to be cold out this weekend (and might look too rude).
