Anyone else have the diziness return after a long time without it?
Maybe higher heat and/or humidity in August?
Thanks for insights.

Yes, absolutely. In fact, I can go for months without a symptom, to only have it come back (with a punch). It can be very frustrating, but I think that I have finally conceded to that fact that the only way to "deal" with PCS is to manage the symptoms. Can't take it on as a whole, one symptom at a time...hope you are feeling better!!
