From what I understand people can (rarely) experience PCS for the first time up to 6 months after trauma.
My symptoms were delayed for about 3 to 4 weeks after head trauma in November 2012, but got progressively worse until Christmas, but then I collapsed in the New Year and things got worse again in January and worst of all in February.
I would say that my symptoms have got progressively better after the 4 month point, and I am now nearly better with the help of medication.
We all react differently, and no injury is ever the same, it is a rollercoaster, but eventually symptoms will come and go, until gradually they all disappear or are there in a greatly reduced form.
You can get 100% better, keep yourself calm and try not to worry - it just takes time!
