Alpha5,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. Your experience sounds common. It will help if you read the Vitamins sticky thread at the top.

The 'do nothing' advice is important. There are still plenty of things you can do while you do nothing. Keep your activities to things that have a manual limit to them. This does not mean video games. Stay away from video games. They easily over-stimulate the visual processing and audio-processing systems.

Card games with real cards is a start. The manual limits will keep the activity level within the quiet rest range that the brain needs.

Tell us about your summer living environment and available activities and we can direct you to those that will be good for recovery.

Body surfing can cause a myriad of triggers to cause a return of symptoms. You are at the very beginning of the concussion learning curve. Your Multiple Concussion Syndrome will be your greatest challenge.

Feel free to post or ask anything. There are lots of good people here.

My best to you.
