Sorry to hear of your troubles,and I wish you well. I have PCS and am nearly at the 4 month stage, but am not too disheartened yet. I have 3 young children under 9 and it is a tough situation to be in. I met with my neuropsychiatrist today, and she advised that when you have PCS your tension/arousal levels are abnormally high, and when stress is put on you headaches, photophobia, fatigue etc increase. We feel stress and tension more but it is displayed in a different way through our symptoms. My symptoms have reduced this week, and I see this as the first phase of recovery. This is because I am avoiding the things that aggravate symptoms and have isolated myself more, rested before and after activity and as a result progress is made. It is a temporary condition, and you need to reduce stress and rest when needed to recover.
