Lovely photo and welcome to the forum family.

If you don't mind me asking when was your injury and how long since you got the post concussion diagnosis?

Again welcome Sousp join in anytime.

Thankyou. My car accident was 30th January of this year. I got the diagnosis pretty much a few weeks after my accident. So I have been suffering now with this for just over 6 months.

Not to worry.

if there's anything we can help with just ask and we will do our best.

Have you been in touch with Headway?

The helpline is open during office hours and the number is in a pinned post on this page.

Love n hugs

I have many months ago. I have had various private treatments over these past 6 months to try and help relive symptoms or totally get rid of them. Accupunture, chiropractic care, have seen a functional neurologist, have just had 3 weeks of optometric visual therapy and am now seeing a cranial osteopath. Not sure if any of this will really help in the long run but I'm so desperate to get back to work and some normality.

Hi Sousp

I also have post concussion syndrome, 5 months this week! What symptoms are you having and are you getting better?

Hi there, am suffering with post concussion syndrome too, how are you doing now, how did you sustain your injury? Mine was following a fall in May 2015

Hi Silver Bunny

I'm 7 months on and just starting to feel a lot better, I'm back at work 4 days a week, dizziness has gone but I'm still not back to the old me yet! Dr has put me on Duciltia which has really helped with my headaches and I've not taken any pain killers for nearly 2 weeks now.
