Oh yeah I remember those. That horrible, awful, nearly nauseaous feeling of impending afternoon sleep, which on waking, made me feel worse.
I think there is some research being done about concussion sleep. At any rate, it's like nothing I've ever had before. Gail Denton describes it in BrainLashed (her book) or I think she does. I think it's the brain working to heal. It could be more too, but I am not sure. You might want a doc to check it for other issues. Hang in there. 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. |
