Default You Look Great video series

Hi Peachy

The 6 part video series Mark recommended is really good. (You Look Great) Ask your family and loved ones to watch it with you.

I still want my 17 yr old daughter to watch it. She still doesn't always get that me -- mom is not quite the old mom.

It's so hard when WE TOO want to be back to OURSEVes, but we just can't. Yes, there is pain and no one can really see it, but thank GOD for this place.

At least you can vent here, ask questions here, and good, kind experienced people will help you as much as they can.

Take care Peachy,
pm

[SIZE="1"]What happened. I was in a car accident 2-23-2013, and got a mild concussion from it. I had some time off for brain rest, got somewhat better, but slipped into PCS in March 2013.

Symptoms I had: dizziness, light and sound sensitivity, fatigue, tinitis, occasional headaches and migraines,

Symptoms as of 5--2013: poor sleep, tinitis, some confusion /short term memory blanks, balance. The other symptoms are mostly gone, but flare up if I OVERdo something.

Therapy I had: vestibular

3 months in: I could drive more and for longer distances. I felt like a younger, happier version of myself and I feel so blessed to have this feeling.

9 months in and I am working full time. I do get tired, and some sound and light sensitivity from time to time, but mostly I am over most of my symptoms.
I pray every day and I m praying for your recovery.

Over a year in: I can multi task (limited) and have humor in my life. But when I am tired, I am very tired.
