Head pressure
 
I know this is a common complaint amongst PCS sufferers, and I was just wondering if anyone has found something that helps them when the head pressure is noticeable.
I'm currently tapering off Lorazepam, and I don't know if it suppressed the worst of the head pressure or what, but today is day 2 without Lorazepam, and my head feels like it's ready to explode.

Xanax made the head pressure disappear, but I stopped taking it. I was worried that I would become addicted to it.

The pressure is getting better. Today is exactly 6 months from the date of my injury, and it is not as severe as it once was. I think that time and rest are both helping the pressure subside, but I could be totally wrong.

I pulled up old posts on here and cried because they helped me remember how bad I used to feel. I still have many of the same symptoms, but on a smaller scale. I have hope that I will return to work and school one day, and I thought my life was over before.
