Hello everybody,

Long story short - I've gotten a lot better, almost working fulltime and doing my obligations privately too (moore or less). However, there is still much I can not.

Since last Friday, I have been pretty busy with a lot of things (fx cleaning car - I will posty another thread about parfume/chemicals and PCS another time). Yesterday I thought I was a little worse because the busy days but decided to take a 4 hour express train travel to pick up my car (which was being fixed in another part of the country).

The train was delayed and was driving fast and there were many bumps and jerks along the way - I felt it was not good, but continued anyway. At my destination I picked up my car and then drove a few hours on a dark highway. But because I was feeling pretty bad and tired I decided to sleep at some relatives.

This morning I drove back home but had many stops along the way because I was tired and foggy. After a long stop, however, I felt that I was better and continued driving for 2 hours. Just before arriving home, there was some road work at the highway and a hard bump that I drove across. I could immediately tell that this was not good.

I drove home but since then I have been dizzy/sailing feeling, groggy and can not concentrate. I think it's minimum seven months since I have been feeling so bad.

I can clearly see how dumb I have been - I got all those warning signs that I overheard, and the bump probably tipped the load.

I am pretty stressed now, because I remeber that I read somewhere on here that rough roads are worse than sub-concusssive hits. And the train ride was definetively not nice. I have droven over the bump before without problems, so I think most of my problems must be because I was tired and exhausted because of the high activity the days before and the train ride. But I normally dont get this bad when I have relapses.

Is this a new injury?Am I back at square one or will this pass in some days if I rest (I know nobody can tell for sure, but I am freaking and thinking the worst)?

Also, how would you handle this? I am trying to use my CBT strategies, but should I also take some additional supplements, propranolol or something else? I am resting in a dark room, but have to go to work tomorrow or I will probably risk beeing fired but will try to avoid to much stimulation.

Thanks for reading and any thoughts will be welcome.
