Question about exercise.
I read before on here that you should exercise until you have symptoms.
What if you always have symptoms?
I've always been afraid to exercise because when I do, it increases my brain fog and makes it harder to express myself. I'm trying to find ways to decrease the fog and improve the quality of my life. I would like to exercise but don't want to cause any further problems.
Anyone who deals with severe brain fog find that exercising helps clear it up? What type of exercises do you do? For how long and how often?
Can I walk, do crunches, push-ups and jog in place?
K thx.

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI.
Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain.
Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms.
Slowly but surely regaining my life back.
