Default Change in symptoms after grieving someone's death

Hi all,

I'm a survivor of 6 concussions that have occurred over the past 30 years. After my last concussion 2 years ago, a number of symptoms have stayed with me (memory, cognition, focusing problems, etc.), however something new happened a couple of months ago.

Back in April, I was one of the caretakers for a good friend in hospice. After she died, I have begun to suffer from debilitating fatigue and somnolence that have made driving and working extremely difficult—not to mention dangerous.

Has anyone experienced a similar change in their PCS symptoms after experiencing a strong/powerful emotional event?

Thanks!

P.S. Yes, I am seeing my doctor and a neurologist plus my CTs and MRI have come up clear for anything obvious. So far, they haven't been much help.
