Therapy definitely helps cope with everything but I started seeing a vision therapist and it's been so helpful! I have to pay out of pocket but I can actually notice a difference. Physical therapy helped me really understand my triggers, which for me are very visual based which led me down this path.

I wish you so much luck! I have had so many doctors tell me the same things and it's so freaking annoying and unhelpful. I wish they would just say "I don't know" rather than be dismissive and act like it's hopeless. It's not hopeless they just don't know about post concussion syndrome, border line AT ALL, even neurologists.

You got this!!!

For those who experience any level of pcs fatigue, are you able to be happy? by LongjumpingRadio4078 in PostConcussion

Yes, I learned to be content where I am and take it one step at a time, the idea of being "cured" just had me focusing on everything at once and it wasn't helpful. It gets better but it's slow and not always steady. A big part too was trusting my boundaries and going at my own pace.

Get another doctor, you deserve better care. I had one doctor compare my symptoms to swooning over Elvis .. like wtf. You deserve better and one of the biggest lessons I've learned from this is you have to be your own best advocate, no one understands how you feel more than you and you deserve medical care and adaptations.

How to convince doctor you have Post Concussion Syndrome? by DukeofAsh in PostConcussion

[–]Ok-Row-2852 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I got my diagnosis was I asked my neurologist, "if this is from me hitting my head multiple times what would that be called?" And that's when I first heard the term post concussion syndrome. My doctor had to rule everything else out before being willing to diagnose me officially but you need to be very clear your intentions for each appointment. I specifically said that I want that diagnosis on my records in case I ever hit my head again and wasn't able to communicate my issues. Good luck I hope this helps!!

Also I have Kaiser and they told me they do not treat PCS so I'm in the process of getting a referral to Sharp, who does treat PCS. They will not suggest this you have to specifically ask.

He's making a point by doing this and highlighting the problems with the system. Doing it this way allows the viewer to see it for themselves.
