So, the more I look into this, it seems like there is a lot of overlap between PCS, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and other adrenal malfunctions: insomnia, restless leg, brain fog, fatigue, headaches. I'm also having a lot of the muscle pain and possibly trigger point symptoms which came on after my head injury, and it looks like there's a decent amount of research showing that adrenal, pituitary, hypothalamic malfunction and even fibromyalgia can be triggered by head injury.

Has anybody heard of or looked into these connections before? Anybody diagnosed with these other things or received treatments specified for them?
