OK,

I finally found a reference to the book you mention. It is titled "Psychiatric Aspects of Neurologic Diseases: Practical Approaches to Patient Care" Small error in memory of the title. Classic for PCS or even anybody with stress.

I am surprised it is being referred to as it applies to psychiatric problems. Your dozing/spacing out events do not sound like psychiatric symptoms.

Have you had a comprehensive assessment of your hormones? Women's International Pharmacy may have a women's health specialist by checking their referral request at https://www.womensinternational.com/..._referral.html Many of these specialists have a higher standard for hormone balance that the generic ob/gyn.

PCS can cause some strange aberrations in hormonal balance.

Also, have you had a thorough evaluation of your upper cervical vertebra? Inflammation in this area can effect blood flow to the brain. Holding the head still in the same position can exacerbate any inflammation.

Just some ideas to check.

My best to you.
