JNC,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. Glad you found this place.

From your post, it appears you are a high achiever with high expectations of yourself. I say this because of your post including many fine details of your thoughts and experiences. It is good to see that you have such good memory skills.

It is very difficult to live with and manage PCS by focusing on the small details. Recovery and improvement is best done by noticing trends, not individual experiences. These trends are best viewed in time spans of weeks and months. Many good days last just that, days and are only momentary events. When they start lasting weeks, they can be expected to be a trend of improvement.

After your diagnosis of PCS, did they recommend quiet rest? I or others can explain more about quiet rest. The busy and active life you describe is counter to recovery. Have you returned to your ADD meds? Have you modified the food and substances you consume? Research suggests limiting alcohol to a single serving per day. Many of us use a vitamin and other supplement regimen to support our brain's efforts to recover.

Please feel free to tell us about the symptoms you are still experiencing and many here will have suggestions for moving forward with your PCS.

btw, Are you in Canada or the States? You mentioned returning to the States but then mention the CDN healthcare system.

My best to you.
