Default PCS nearly 4 months

Hello,

I was involved in a bicycle accident around 3.5 months ago. I was diagnosed with PCS. At first my symptoms were clouded thinking, difficulty concentrating, constant headache, nausea, fatigue, etc.

After about a month or two, I came mostly out of the fog. I mostly stopped needing to sleep for several hours during the day. There are still days where I'm still foggy--but it's not nearly as bad. But I still have a headache every day basically all day. I'm also mostly nauseous and tired all day long. I sleep for about 10 hours per night and have difficulty falling asleep (but not staying asleep). I cannot do any physical activity without feeling worse. Every time my heart rate goes up, my symptoms get worse, even if for a short period.

I don't feel like I'm improving--some days I feel miserable and other days slightly better. I have not felt "normal" once during this period. I am getting pretty worried that things won't change. I don't know what to do.
