Default Thank You for your stories

Hi everyone, Thank you so much for sharing your stories of hope and of the struggles with PCS. Because of this forum I have learned I am not crazy. I have learned why I couldn't follow/read emails at work & why I started with the anxiety/panic attacks & ADD type symptoms.

I suffered my latest concussion in April 2013 and now I am struggling with PCS...constant headaches, eye pain, some vision issues, dizziness, light/noise sensitivities, difficulties with attention, reading & following conversations, depression, anxiety & panic and sleep problems.

I tripped at work and apparently bounced my head on the concrete floor. I do not remember the actual fall but I did suffer whiplash. I have been to a neurologist who referred me to Physical therapy who I believe thinks the eye problems & headaches are from the whiplash. We'll see.

My workman's comp doctor prescribed Lexapro which seems to help with the emotional issues I am living with.
