Space cadet,

I never found exercising to help the brain fog. Just makes me not depressed.
I would only do walking and stretching. Actually I did some leg lifts from tracy anderson. Basically you stand in one place holding a chair and I would close my eyes due to headache. Squats around the house too. Building up time walking seems the best idea. I know you live in the city though and can be hard.

Every once in a while I get frustrated and run as fast as I can. I always pay for it the rest of the day. I wouldn't recc it but I know sometimes it feels good.

Greenfrog, Do you have a pounding headache after a flight of stairs? Like a 10/10. Even with time and getting stronger this never abates.

Also other frustrating points. Headache could be partially caused by neck injury. It does get better but not much over time. I know my brain is getting better but have all symptoms when I exercise show up (brain ones).

What exactly is still damaged then? The headache from damage in brain/ shearing? or just neck. Say 10 years later I still have symptoms when exercising? Does it mean my neck never got better or my head? Any opinions?

Thank you!
