Saw my PCP today. She signed off on my last month of short-term disability with the diagnosis of Post-Concussion Syndrome.

She said that she feels the headaches, depression, and physical/mental reactions I have to stress now are NOT related to my concussion last January.

I did have mild depression before the concussion. Is this now causing all my symptoms that I have been thinking were PCS?

I am very very frustrated. For months she has been doing nothing as far as treatment but just telling me, it doesn't seem like you're back to normal yet. But now all of a sudden it's not PCS any more?

I scheduled an appointment with a physiatrist (I had to call a bunch of different places and the scheduling office at one of the offices I was referred to as HAVING physiatrists did not even know what they were or that doctors with specialty in physical medicine and rehabilitation existed ). I also have an appointment with a psychiatrist later this week.

Basically, today has been a nightmare. I want to crawl under the sheets and not come out for several months. Depression? Or PCS?
