Default Problems after flying?

I was recovering pretty well from my brain injury I sustained back in August until recently. I flew to St. Croix, and within an hour after landing had one of the worst migraines I've ever experienced. Since that initial attack about 2.5 weeks ago, I've been crippled by dizziness, migraines, mood swings, memory problems, fatigue, tremors and eyes that shake. I've had all these symptoms before, but most had gone away until the flight.

My neurologist says that it's complicated migraines associated with the head injury and likely that the changes in pressure from flying triggered it.

Have any of you experienced this??

I'm to the point were I'm contemplating going back out on short term disability from work so that I don't damage my professional reputation anymore and give myself time to heal.
