Default PCS for a year...Head Pressure...Cannot work out

Hi all,

So I will try to be sweet and to the point. In august 2009 I suffered my first concussion while playing softball. I slid into home plate and was real out of it after I got up (dont really know how I got it or what). I continued to play 4 more games after that like an idiot. When I went home i tried to run the treadmill the next day but felt as if my brain was moving in my skull (just a way of describing it), so I stopped and rested for a week. After a week i healed and was good to go back adn play. A few months later i wacked my head on car door, had a headache for a week, went away, good. On January 2010 i was playing basketball and i got elbowed in the mouth. i fell to the ground and had an immediate headache in back of my head like right above my neck. I didnt really rest again like an idiot bcs i played D1 softball and was a captain, etc. So i continued to lift and run, etc. and after a week of playing hard on it i went home one night and couldnt even stand. I had a headache, dizzy, felt nauseus, etc. I told my coach i was sitting out until i felt better. Well my symptoms werent going away, so bcs i played on an athletics team i felt it was necessary to go to a real dr. just have them diagnose me with a concussion and my coach can stop giving me ****. Well when i went to the neuros they said it was anziety and all this bull ****. So i went back to play...bad choice. I didnt last a day. I told my coach Iw as done. Now i was just sitting out every day to hope my sumptoms would go away. All my symtposm eventually went away and i was left with a pressure feeling in my head. It is frontally located. when i wouled move, drive, walk, move my head, etc. i would feel it. alsmost like a bubble in my head. Over a year later I still have that feeling. If I exert myself in amy way that pressure feeling stands out and makes me feel really groggy. So basically it has ruined my life. Has anyon else experienced this syptoms? anyon please help me.
