I should also note that my employer had been extremely graceful on me. I also have a neuro OT I am working with who had come to my job and spoken to my coworkers and suggested implementing some things to help with my symptoms such as window coverings for glare and computer coverings for glare as well.

My OT has designed the re-entry work schedule for me and it's a 6-10 week re-entry before I'm back to 40 hours. I still have my benefits and still have my position. I come in for my allotted time- do a brain break half way through- and do the best I can and the most I can for those 4 hours.

Then I come home and rest before continuing on with home life.

My biggest whoopsie originally was not resting and taking on the I can do it all even with a brain injury motto. Let's say that made my healing more like a slow degradation of my capacity and brain functioning than it was 'healing'.

With the right knowledge now to get back to work I think I will have less symptoms. And I do just as thrasher does .... Brain Break immediately when a symptom pops up.
