Yup I'm in severe pain because I'm an idiot who was having a decent day so I thought I could increase my time on the recumbent bike from my recently started "usual" 10 minutes, to a whopping 18 minutes. I didn't even realize that much time had gone by. And voila. Killer headache, speech issue worse, general confusion and delays processing... Surprise. I burned another 20 calories for this? Grrrr. So frustrating. My own fault though.

About it: October 26, 2012 I fell backward on an icy parking lot at work. I was on Workers Comp for 9 months. My PCS : everyday headaches became once in a while headaches, and neck pain became manageable. Still have occasional mild dizziness, sometimes fullness in the ears, convergence insufficiency, sequencing struggles, short term memory struggles, verbal processing delays. CT neg, MRI neg. Therapies: prism glasses, acupuncture, icing neck, resting, supplementing, Elavil 20mg at bedtime. NEW: Completed 12 weeks of physical therapy and returned to work full time. About me: I'm a marketing manager, a mom with a blended family and wife to a heart attack survivor. I believe my brain injury taught me more than it cost me. I'm grateful to still be me! |
