Thanks Mark. There are so many ingredients in my supplements, so I have to do that a day I have more energy. However, I have tried to take as "clean" as possible nutrition supplements.
I drink very little coffee. Only less than half a cup in the morning. However, it happens even though I do not drink coffee at all. My doctor could not say anything about my tremors, but he has sent me to a neurologist - I will probably not get an appointment before about two weeks. I will ask the neurologist if I can get some medication for the tremors. Mark in Idaho: I've had this for the past two weeks. It happened after I had been crying a night. Now the tremors only gets worse, but the other symptoms are much better. Do you think the tremors are permanent, or is it something that will go away after a while, like the other symptoms normally do? I am really worried about this. |

Now I have almost completely recovered from my little concussion 1 1/2 months ago (I am very sensitive after more serious concussions in 2008). Now I have no symptoms except from muscle twitching. However, the twitching in my head, neck, shoulders and arms are extremely irritating and sometimes they make me get a headache (because my head is sometimes twitching really hard).
I will see a neurologist on Monday. I will ask her to do an EEG (as Concussed Scientist tipsed me about) and some medications. I will tell you all if she has some good tips (that hopefully some others here can benefit from). Quote:

[SIZE="1"]What happened. I was in a car accident 2-23-2013, and got a mild concussion from it. I had some time off for brain rest, got somewhat better, but slipped into PCS in March 2013. Symptoms I had: dizziness, light and sound sensitivity, fatigue, tinitis, occasional headaches and migraines, Symptoms as of 5--2013: poor sleep, tinitis, some confusion /short term memory blanks, balance. The other symptoms are mostly gone, but flare up if I OVERdo something. Therapy I had: vestibular 3 months in: I could drive more and for longer distances. I felt like a younger, happier version of myself and I feel so blessed to have this feeling. 9 months in and I am working full time. I do get tired, and some sound and light sensitivity from time to time, but mostly I am over most of my symptoms. I pray every day and I m praying for your recovery. Over a year in: I can multi task (limited) and have humor in my life. But when I am tired, I am very tired. |
