Hello all, i was assaulted 4 months and 10 days ago from which i was unconscious for around 5-10 mins according to eyewitnesses and have had a PTA amnesia of around 40 mins - 1 and a half hour. The ambulance people missed the part of me being unconscious and i dont remember what i said to them since i had PTA untill i was at the hospital. Few days after that i was diagnosed with a concussion. So now 4 months after that my life has been pretty much a complete upside down wreck with daily dizziness, BIG tiredness, some nausea, some vision problems, some headache etc etc etc. Had a MRI and a CT done only because i pushed to do them and they were both normal. Also did an EEG and it was normal too.
So basically im another one of you guys and i really hope this gets better soon since i can feel depression getting the best of me. Also the thing i was wondering is if this symptom is a common symptom for PCS sufferers: looking at screens of any kind (example PC screen, TV screen etc ) makes me so dizzy and so tired after a few mins to the point i need to lie down. I am a student finishing e-business studies and an avid PC enthusiast and "gamer" and needless to say this is the thing that scares me the most since it kinda messes with my whole future. And if it is a normal and common symptom of PCS does it go away in time similar to the other PCS symptoms? I have been avoiding sitting in front of screens for a longer time than a few mins for months now. Thanks in the front I hope we all get better soon. Cheers ![]() |
