Regarding your PCS, have you been doing anything to help your brain recover?
I have ceased all exercise, weight lifting, sexual activity, and anything that aggravates my symptoms.

I'm trying to get as much sleep as possible (average 8 hours per night) and am taking strong multivitamins and fish oil.

Is there anything else I should be doing that is proven to help?
