Confused To continue life or wait?

I hit my head Feb 4 but my symptoms didn't seem to hit fully until a few days ago. Friday was hard, in fact I went to the E.R. because of it (long story), Saturday was a huge rest day and I felt a bit better after 15 hours of sleep the night before, Sunday was hard off and on (meds seemed to help), Monday was better. Stress seems to set me off pretty easily and I have plenty of opportunities for stress in my life and even while I want to rest, I also want to get back to dealing with life since I am aware it hasn't stopped just because things changed for me

I find myself asking the question, do I wait for things to get better before returning to life or do I jump back in the fray and just try to take it easy while I'm symptomatic? It feels like there's conflicting information on the web and I don't have too much feedback yet from my doctors. I don't mind slowing it all down for a while, I just wonder for how long? I don't see myself being able to wait until I'm no longer symptomatic to carry on with business. I don't claim being in the PCS boat, but I also don't want to wait to see if I get that badge to ask "how long is long enough?" Any advice?
