Confused PCS ideas, thoughts, comments...

History:
I have had PCS off and on for 3 years and currently going through a stretch of 5 months of terrible symptoms. I almost have done everything possible to help the condition. I have been slowly getting better the last month or so but no where i need to be to be able to work and get back to my normal schedule. With my experience I found out that nothing in particular works, it may help but does not get you healed. The best I found was just rest and relaxation. I did take a drug called Topamax for 1-2 years and that worked great until i stopped working 5-6 months ago, and not sure why.
General:
This PCS is a straight up ***** and no one has any idea about what u are going through except for individuals that are going through it or have been through it.
Unfortunately, I do not know of anyone that has it. It would be nice to meet up and hang out with people that have been through it or going through it. It would be nice to be with people and to talk to people that have experience in the issue and make you feel comfortable knowing u are with a person(s) that have the symptoms...
Ideas/Thoughts:
Ha I live in St. Louis MO if anyone is interested to start up a group session or anything that works. I feel that it would help us all to be with people that are going through it or have.
More History and Recommendations
I currently unable to work but stay as optimistic as possible, esp since I know it has worked in the past. For those interested, I am on Lamotrigine, which has been the most helpful medicine other than Topamax. I also see a cranial-sacral therapist that has helped me feel a little better, and Ill take it. I know a Major League Soccer player that is doing this as well.
Thanks hope this helps and hope people keep responding to this and continue a nice long thread.
