I completely agree with Mark. Last summer/fall when i was pushing myself to be social and try to live a normal life, i would have some situations where i would be at an open air bar or restaurant and do fine. The brain fog wouldnt come on as quickly and headaches would be somewhat tolerable. But if it was an indoor location or a get together at someones house, i very quickly became overloaded and would zonk out and not be able to speak. I would obviously have to be taken home and then suffered bad days affterwards. There was something about the open air that helped. i'm also not normally a claustrophobic person, but i did have some social anxiety issues during my worse months and the indoor area made me really anxious and claustrophobic.

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.
