advice
 
Hi all,

I have been 5 months PCS. I have nearly had 2 good weeks in a row (saturday will mark 14 days) and by good I mean the only real symptom im having is a dull headache everynow and then and feeling a little sketchy mentally. Other than that Ive been able to go about my normal life, work exercise, etc. I know I am not out of the clear but I feel like if this trend continues for a few more weeks I may be back to 'normal'. What Im looking for is advice on my next moves from here. I will ofourse still be taking it easy, and easing back into things, but any advice/ peoples experiences will be helpful. I am moving closer to beating this god awful illness and I need all the help possible.

Hope everyone is feeling well today :)

Good for you.

Just continue taking is easy and slow. Ever good day you can add to the string of good days is more healing. Try to figure out if there are any triggers for your head aches. Maybe a time spent reading too much or too much sound stimulation or any kind of sensory stimulation or stressor. Or a lack of sleep.

If you can identify the triggers, then you can learn to avoid them and take your recovery even longer.

Sounds like you are doing something right. Keep it up.

Glad to hear you are seeing so many good days in a row! I'm at 7 months now and I'm seeing a couple good days here and there and I'm very grateful too! Now, like Mark says, I have to take it easy and try to string together more good days instead of overdoing it and getting pushed back.

Thanks for sharing your good news with us! Please keep posting even just to let us know all the good news. Helps us stay positive!
