Default ok, maybe rest and less stress works

So, Im now a week and a half into not working. With the final decision coming this past Wednesday. Once i was told to fully rest and knew i wasnt going to work....i've just been resting.

Although i have zero energy still, my headaches have lessened quite a bit. I dont feel like there is a cinderblock on my head, just some pressure, not as many icepicks.

I guess there is something to say for rest and less stress. Seems to have already helped a little. Now i just need some energy so i can do more than lay in bed!

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.
