Default Am I missing something

I have a question about my situation. Ive had PCS for about a year now. I had 3 concussions in about 3 months which has caused me to be where im at now. After the second one is where I the PCS started. I noticed head sensitivity, anxiety, headaches, and just not being able to think clearly. It was bad but manageable. I went to college and could still do most things id normally do.

I got a third concussion after that however and things got really bad. I felt so bad all day. Extremely out of it. My head was very sensitive and anxiety was terrible. I really felt nowhere close to myself.

My question is am I missing something? Is there more to this than PCS? What makes me think its more than PCS is the fact that my head is so sensitive, and the nature of the headaches I get. If I simply stumble down a step and jar my body I will get a headache.

These headaches give me very bad brain fog and a feeling of pressure throughout my head. Overall I feel alot more high strung and bad and just not able to think clearly at all with them. And when the headaches go away there is a loud pop in my ear, or a super loud ringing, and all the sudden I feel better. It happens every time. Also when the headaches are bad I will wake up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat.

My life has been very hard since the third one. Washing my hair normally (roughly), driving, lots of things are too much for me and I just cant feel myself or good, or ever able to think clearly.

Could this be something more than PCS? Should I be taking certain tests? What I keep coming back to is that I have Increased Intracranial Pressure. Is this likely or do I just have bad PCS? If surgery is what will get me back to normal, or help anything id do it.
