Default The only thing left is fatigue: prognosis?

So glad I found you all--I was in a car accident 5 weeks ago yesterday and like everyone here got a concussion. I did have concentration difficulties, memory difficulties, etc--but I never really had headaches (just pressure, which I don't call a headache since it wasn't bad), nor did I have dizziness, double vision, unconsciousness, significant amnesia or nausea. All the same, my neuro called it a 'moderate' concussion based on his evaluation at the 2.5 week mark. At this point, all cognitive tests are very good (well above normal), and I have no problem reading or writing, but have that *******fatigue that shuts all systems down at the least hint of adrenaline use (i.e, one excited conversation with someone). Has anyone on here only had the fatigue remaining, and any clue what the prognosis is? Is fatigue alone one of those symptoms that can last forever? I REALLY want to resume my job since I was on fast track to being promoted but am very frustrated by this setback in my life. Any thoughts hugely appreciated.
