So sorry to hear about your accident and all the difficulty you're having. It is no fun at all. Glad you found us here, though! It's given me a lot of valuable information and support.
You definitely need to take the time off work. If they won't give it to you nicely, get a lawyer and demand it. You need to be resting your body and your brain.
And you need to find a doctor who actually knows something about concussions and PCS. You might try calling the Brain Injury Association to see if there are any concussion clinics near you.
Good luck, and hope you heal quickly.
