Default Looking for information about best recovery practices a few weeks out

I just wanted to thank everyone for the information, especially Mark in Idaho who goes out of his way to provide detailed, informative responses in every thread.

I'm just over 3 weeks out from the Mild TBI now, I have seen a dulling of the initial severe symptoms, primarily being a headache which is now substantially reduced and often absent at all. I'm still getting other symptoms though, I find myself suffering from extreme anxiety symptoms on occasion which is not normal for me, I still get slightly recurring Nausea and the strangest one is the consistent tingling in my feet.

I went through and had a head and neck CT to rule out any further injury due to the symptoms taking a few weeks to reside, they were clear. You hear a lot of talk about the 'best methods of recovery' and 'appropriate treatment' but there isn't a lot of detail about that, at what point to you typically deem that the symptoms are mild enough to get back into 'normal life', be that exercising, socialising etc.

Its a bit unfortunate that the medical community doesn't really have strict guidelines for this kind of thing as I haven't found the information very forthcoming.
