There is lots of important info on this thread for those who are new to PCS
Things you wish you'd known when you first got post-concussion syndrome.
Good Luck!

Fell off a horse in late winter of 2009 blacked out for a couple seconds, had amnesia for 10 hours (still don't remember this time), had 2 CT scans, 2 MRI's, 1 MRA all negative. Since the first concussion I have continually knocked my head into different things purely by accident or from being stupid. These many concussions over a short period of time have caused
constant migraines, nausea, and dizziness/lack of balance.
Migraine triggers are:
light sensitivity (especially to florescent or bright lights)
sound sensitivity (especially to high pitched or loud sounds)
temperature sensitivity (especially to cold or extreme heat)
activity (especially if breathing increases or head is jostled)
pressure on head (sinuses, hats, headbands, sunglasses, pony-tails)
lacks or quality (food, sleep, water)
tension (stress, tight muscles, tired eyes, sickness)

Wymon,

There is a good chance that you can heal your brain. I'm in the process of putting together a list of therapies that have worked for me and many others and I'll post it on here shortly. Look for that and see if any of those interest you.

In addition to Mark in Idaho's excellent nutrition suggestions, I'd like to add in Coconut Oil and Curcumin and N-Acytal Cystein. The coconut oil possesses only the fatty acids that your brain likes so you get those in a highly concentrated solution. Curcumin with N-Acytal Cystein has been shown to dramatically reduce brain inflammation, which is an important thing to do for healing.
