Hi,

I can relate to the worry about having further injury. I have found since my accident I am paranoid about myself and my family having accidents. It is almost like PTSD. This can be addressed by a therapist. It is really important to take the time it takes to get better. If you do not recover properly you will keep getting bouts of psc. I just recently discovered that my concussion caused a condition call post traumatic vision syndrome (I can not read, watch t.v. or be on the computer long without getting really sick). I have now got prism glasses to correct my vision and am undergoing vision therapy. It is really important to get as much information about your condition as possible because there is help out there, but you have to find the right individual. I went to an eye doctor twice to be told there is nothing wrong with my eyes, but needed to go to a neuro opthamologist to find out what was going on.

You are your best advocate, you need to go out and seek help.

Good luck.
