Dealing with Post Concussion Symptoms One Year Later. Suggestions?

@lisalucier Not really. I did find help with my doctor- after reaching out to Mayo who sent me back to my local doctor, who prescribed a low dose tricyclic. which helped the headaches. I'm still struggling with fatigue.
Thanks for checking back.

Maybe loss see a neurologist. That's the direction I was pointed to with my post cs. I went to rehab. It helped a lot. They were really patient and worked with what I needed

I encourage you to listen to the Podcast-
The COUNTERSTRAIN Movement.
After 30 yrs of seeking help with a TBI ,
that’s what has saved me when nothing else did.

@holinka2

Never too late.
I had one or more TBI’s in Jan of 2024.
I am still struggling with headaches, confusion, pain.
Go see that doctor.

my son has been dealing with PCS for a little over two years, we are just trying to have some clarity of what is typical and things we can watch for as we navigate this. I has been a rollercoaster and just trying to navigate in an area with little research for his age group.

@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.

Car accident August 2024. Symptoms resolved I think. Medicated improperly and not managed properly.

@vv91 - so, if I understand you correctly, you feel that despite improper medication and management, your symptoms following your car accident have now resolved?

Also looking for what can help head pain, dizzyness, focus, neck pain, fatigue, nausea. Been 4 months. Can any one help. Neurologist never checked bumps just sent me for neuropathy test. No help what so ever .Also passed out, hit kitchen tile.

@barbeok70 same here hopefully we get answers
