Test yourself. Make sure you have a couple days afterwards that you dont have much to do in case you experience a setback. But sounds like you have been taking it nice and slow and resting a lot, so it will hopefully go well for you! Good luck!

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. |

I pushed myself a little bit at least once a week and I noticed I felt worse immediately after but the next time I went out, it was easier to do. This "pushing" isn't the amount of pushing you do when healthy... it's minor but you will feel it. Don't push it all the time though. You'll know when it's too much and you will feel awful and crazy. : ) Once a week was enough for me. More than that and I would feel aggitated.

I think it's varies based on the person. I just started walking again. The first couple of days my head was pounding. I kept going and it got better. I dream about running but I'm afraid of bouncing my brain around like that. I do bursts of fast walking. I get nervous because of my clumsyness. I do miss the days of running carefree, doing gymnastics in the yard. I think all we can do is try and see.
 Good luck... |
