Default Take time off work?

How important is it to take time off work? My only serious symptoms that still haunt me are constant headaches. My other symptoms seem to be less noticeable. Will my symptoms just stay with me and drag on the healing process or am I seriously affecting my chances of healing at all?

MY HISTORY:
I've had PCS for almost 2 moths now. For the first month I carried on life as normal (drinking, working, no rest. etc.) and my doctor just told me to take it easy and it will go away in a few weeks.

After a strenuous run a few weeks ago (after I thought I was better) I relapsed to a state that is worse than the original symptoms. My new doctors told me to take a week off work and advised thereafter to take more time off work. I returned to work after the one week off. I work with computers.
