Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect, @swimman1. I moved your post here so you could chat with others who've discussed post-concussion syndrome.

Will he get a chance to visit with the neurologist before starting school for the year? What are his feelings about the post-concussion syndrome and managing his symptoms at school?

@swimman1 How is he doing? I don't have any insurance and neurologists don't respond when I message for information. 19 months with Post Concussion Syndrome here. I've found a lot of help reading descriptive posts. Like one lady had no insurance but had a retired DR at her church that was giving her suggestions - playing games on the internet. He said any game, because they all have a goal that you have to process out. So I do Words with Friends, Solitaire, Word Blitz, etc. Social anxiety is more of a problem now. It's the little setbacks that - whether a common slip or your braining having a small slip - feels like someone pulled the chair from out underneath you. I come down harder on myself. Recently, I had some people that knew I had a TBI intentionally give me the wrong information. They were joking, they said. They claim, they thought I was ok. I asked them - why would you give people false information when you know they were going to repeat it, if not to make them make a fool out of themselves in front of others? How is that a joke?

The headaches, eye pain/tired eyes, constant ringing is very draining. I feel like I haven't had a restful sleep in forever. My body feels on edge 100% of the time. I just can't relax. The loud noises are amplified and I sometimes I go into a small room for less distractions. Even the bathroom has become a peaceful place where I can shut out light contrasts, movement, noise, all the things in the house.

I hope you post replies on how your son is doing and what Neurologists have suggested. God bless.
