You poor, poor thing. (((Hugs))) to you. I hope you'll find some equilibrium soon. I'd be happy to share my email with you should you ever need to talk to someone who's more comfortable walking in your shoes.

You aren't alone, and you are important. Take care!

43-year-old female, final blow leading to PCS occurred Jan 2, 2012, when I hit my head on the edge of the car door, hard enough to chip the paint. Felt "okay" for a couple of hours. Then headache, dizzyness, nausea, etc., hit hard. Diagnosed as "concussion & contusion" first, then PCS a couple of weeks later. Lasting symptoms: persistent brain fog, enhanced depression & anxiety, intermittent dizzyness, mild constant headache (where a full-on migraine is a 10 level pain, these are about a 3). I also have trouble remembering faces/names, am easily confused, and can't read choral music (!). My worst issue is that I often dream that I do something, but don't realize it was a dream--this is causing issues in my job.

Am on the feeling better/crashing roller coaster now. Take 10 mg of Elavil per day which has helped a great deal.
