I am so sorry for what you are going through. Unfortunately, I can relate. If it wasn't for this site, I would think that I was going crazy sometimes.
It's been almost two-and-a-half years for me, and I still cannot tolerate noise, crowded places, long conversations, etc. When I get the foggy days, I either want to cry or scream or both.
I think the thing that has helped me the most is to try (and the key word is "try", because it doesn't always work) to take it one day at a time. That is the only thing that you can do with this PCS.
Unfortunately, doctors don't understand it. At least that's what I've found. You have to seek out what works for you. And even though you were trying to be think of your husband, you do have to protect yourself. If you feel you have to lie down, that means that you are getting a signal from your body, and if you don't listen to it, you will suffer.
Please take care of yourself. Everyone here cares. Vent as much as you like. I guess that's one of the purposes of this site.
I hope you feel better soon. PCS is so up and down. A good book, if you haven't read it yet is Brainlash, by Gail Denton.
