Frustrated

[Robin1noggin]

Recently hit by auto while cycling. Diagnosed with neck sprain and concussion.

Recently returned to 4 hrs/ day at work but Dr has ordered me off again due to symptoms resurfacing.

So frustrating . Any ideas?

At a hunch it may be a little too soon for work? It's very temping to rush back?

Robin, the word 'recently' could be the key ; concussion can be a longer term problem than once believed. Plenty of rest is usually the best healer (no late night revelling for the present ! ) and try not to worry about fatigue .................... it's your brain healing itself, so go with it.

I'm glad you have a caring GP ; time for you to care about yourself for a while.

Best wishes, Cat x

True about the tempting to return part. When I did return I got the "stink eye" from a number of co workers. There is very little info available about recovery. People think you have to be an NFL athlete to have a legit concussion

Right now I feel a bit like a science experiment....try this...try that...lets hope for the best. It's wearing me down and I have no physical outlet. Ie: exercise
