Thankyou VERY MUCH everyone, that is all great to hear. I figured I know anxiety in itself is bad for PCS so your help in reducing it is much appreciated.

That is cool advice! I can handle a relapse, been there before and can do it again - I realise now it was the uncertaintly which was the problem. I'll try and remember that approach for life in general....
