Default Hello

Hi Momwriterstudent,


Oh yes, you listed many, many symptoms we have all felt. These do subside with time and brain rest.

If you have to work on your computer, there is a free thing out there called
f.lux and it will help cut out the glare on the computer too.

Maybe you can take breaks from your computer to help with brain rest.

I hope you can get some help with your children. It's hard when you are sick, but you are. I really hope you can get a support system working for you in your area.

Hang in there and keep asking questions. Help is here.

Sincerely

poetrymom

[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.
