Suffering from PCS and the general ignorance of others who are baffled as to why a simple fall would leave a professional woman disabled from work. Finding it very difficult to acquire support.

Using some of the info graphics posted to help educate my family first, on why I am in such agony yet incapable of expressing much. Verbal skills affected, memory, concentration, among other significant things, but I'll leave that for the PCS forum.

I'm looking for ANY Canadian resources out there. I'm not in a major city, so I feel pretty much abandoned by the medical system. Any Canucks out there?

Sincerely,
Rri
hi there Rri
Im in Canada, diagnosecd with pcs as well but am also looking for answers. My doctor says all I can do is rest but it is frustrating not to be able to do simple thingslike put on my shoes or make a cup of tea. My big accomplishment this week is using the computer for 5 minutes at a time. Work is understanding so far ( 2 months) but im afraid that wont last. Sometimes even I feel like I need to smarten up and try harder....even though I have found out that just make thingas worse. It is good to know there are others out there with similiar issues. Looking forward to finding some"good news" stories. Julia
