Thank you all for the kind words and suggestions. I read the vitamin thread and I will start taking my multivitamin again, I had stopped for a while, but it seems like it covers a lot of what was listed so that should help as well.

As far as other suggestions go, I like the cards idea, that seems to be a good one and ive always loved playing cards. How about doing puzzles? Would that be too much? That has always been a hobby of mine as well.


My summer living environment is my home and is always a pretty quiet place, I live in a fairly rural area so there is never any noise like you would find in the city.

Now as far as recovery goes, how do I approach the 'do nothing' strategy? Hypothetically, if I were to do said strategy for a week, and found it to be successful, would it be ok to then perhaps test some of my abilities? For example, playing a video game for 20-30 minutes and seeing how my brain reacts, or perhaps a quick ride on the bike or something like that? From what I remember from my first concussion, the doctor advised me to rest up for a bit and then try to test myself and see what I could do. He told me if I ever felt any symptoms to stop and wait some time because I was not ready to do that activity. Is that the strategy I should be employing here?
