Default Return to work devastating

I have had multiple concussions. The first diagnosed one was Feb. 2012 and then the two more recent ones were Sept. 2013 and Dec. 2013. I went on leave from my teaching job after the September one. My neurologist approved me to return to work Feb. 2014. I taught and attended meetings for only 2 days, and had to stop work again. The puzzling thing is that my condition 7 weeks after I stopped work is the worst it has ever been. I am homebound - in bed most of the day due to headaches whenever I walk or even talk. I take Gabapentin and Nortriptylene and Temazapam. Does anyone have any suggestions for what I can do at this point? I have become very weak from staying in bed all the time, although my feeling is that staying in bed is probably the best thing. Any ideas, experiences, or suggestions are welcomed. Thank you![/B][/B]
