Thanks for the replys so far. She just had a two week check up with her doctor. He administered the impact test that she took at the start of the school year. The first time she took this (post concussion) she failed it miserably (as expected). Yesterday she did substantially better than the last time.

However she is still expereincing the symptoms and today the headache is worse as is the sensitivity to sound and light. She went through this two weeks ago as well when she took the impact test for the first time, again test was post concussion.

I was hoping for some examples/reply's of kids with similiar circumstances she is about one month with these symptoms and there has been no relief with the headache. I realize concussions are different but there seems to be a common theme of: 7 to 10 days with some people or 4 to 6 weeks and 1 to 3 months before the symptoms usually subside.

She has just begun to take .25 mg noratriptaline...........hopefully it will help?
