Hey Ed
Prayer helped me a lot and I pray every day for everyone with this dreaded affliction. For a silver lining, my journy with PCS has deepened my faith and brought me quite close to God. Do hang in there. You had a serious injury and not super long ago in brain healing. Mindful meditation helps me too esp with poor sleep. Praying for you Ed! Sincerly pm

[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. |

I hear ya. I'm just a month behind you in date of injury. I've resigned myself to a simpler quieter life at least for now and am trying to take it as it comes. Reading books, silly romance novels by Nora Roberts has helped and passed a lot of time. Fishing was great too when I had access to it. I'm sure that as time passes additional entertainment and productive ways to live will come. My family's only care is for my comfort and recovery. I'm sure yours is too. I know I would like to offer them more but cannot at this time. They have acknowledged that and only accept what I can give.
Best of luck and hang in there!!! Wade Quote:
