Hi,
I was a competitive cyclist and also involved in playing guitar and singing pre concussion. Singing after was also hard for me. It created tension in base of skull and triggered a migraine a couple times. 20 months after though, I started practising again - both playing guitar and singing. It was tough at first, but 8 months later and I'm good to go with singing. I still have other symptoms, but feel about 90% recovered overall. As for exercise, it's supposed to help, but for me it was a choice of cashing my available energy chips on earning a living, or exercise - doing both is still very tough to manage as I burn out, even 2.5 years after the concussion. I've heard playing music is very stimulating for the brain, so maybe good "exercise" for it? |

Hi Vanya,
Just checking whether you feel better? When you get these bad setbacks do you eventually recover to pre-setback stat (baseline PCS state)? best wishes |

Sorry for the late reply. Yes I get back to my baseline after these setbacks but it takes time, about 3 weeks on average I would say, and for a few days I am barely able to leave my house. This happened again in a restaurant yesterday, I was wearing earplugs and only stayed 1 hour but now I am paying the price for it, and I guess it will take some time to recover from it. How about you? Are you suffering from the same issue? Best wishes. Vania |
