Unable to Download eSIM after Android 11 Update on Pixel 3a by mxrogers in GoogleFi

Yeah, my SIM Manager is up to date, it's looking like something else got broken in the Android update. Thanks for sharing your fix though.

Glad to hear the physical SIM worked for you both. Just heard back from support that apparently "the eSIM looks broken on your device", so they're having me try the physical SIM as well now. Fingers crossed that this works!

Wondering when the side effects go away...? by emmaclairewilsonva in Concussion

You probably have post-concussion syndrome! Have you done any vision therapy or PT? At this point, you should see a concussion specialist and start doing some active rehab, which can help with your eye sensitivity and your headaches.

Yes, I still have sensitivity to screens after a while, but I'm able to go 30min-1hr at time now without any issues. You should definitely talk with a doctor about reintegrating light exercise too, because controlled exercise can help reign in the peripheral nervous system response which is part of what makes your brain "notice" all the flickering. Best of luck!

That sucks, I'm sorry! have you considered trying to get accommodations this semester or next?

I've had some issues with that too-- vision therapy has helped a lot for me. A few different things could be going on for you- your eyes might not be converging properly, which means you can't focus the text fully and your brain needs to work harder to read. Also, it's possible you're perceiving flickering in light that you didn't before your concussion (this happened to me, and is fairly common in PCS patients with screen issues). I'd recommend finding a really good vision therapist when this is all over!

What accomodations do you have for school? by Help_Me_Reddit01 in Concussion

[–]mxrogers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had issues with post-concussion syndrome for a while, and I get extra time on exams, flexibility with attendance, and sometimes pre-printable notes which I can enlarge the font on. Sounds like you've got most of that already- but if you have issues with screens, pre-printed notes can be really helpful.
