Hey Lucy... I found this board after simply brushing my head under the sink! Granted, I hit it about 3 months ago on a filing cabinet at work doing the same thing... getting up too fast and not paying enough attention to where my head was. In both cases I was in a hurry and trying to get a lot done.

Anyway, I'm just floored that such insignificant hits could seemingly bring back all these PCS symptoms. I bet the one thing we all have in common is at least one serious concussion in our past. Little knocks on the head that most people don't even think about can become a big deal. Surely not that much damage could be caused by these little knocks!

It's been exactly 3 weeks and 1 day, and I feel considerable better now, thank God. After this, I'm seriously considering wearing a helmet around the house now as I do chores! It would go a long way towards making me feel safer! I don't care about how ridiculous I'd look.

I was cleaning up a bit yesterday (it's the first time I've had ANY energy to do anything in 3 weeks), and I noticed an involuntary bang of apprehension anytime I walked through a doorway. It's like my body and mind are hyper sensitive to anything coming within a foot or two of my head.

Hope you feel better soon. I was really bummed for a week or two there, but I'm really encouraged by how much better I feel now.
