Ow.

Recovering from a major head injury seems to take time. I have had a headache for 3 months now. At times it is mild; at times it is a full blown migraine. I am grateful that my fall was not worse... I am doing physical therapy so that I can get back to normal.

What I have learned is that you must research to determine if your PT is qualified to treat you for a head and neck injury. You can not just let just anyone treat you. You have to find a physical therapist who knows the neck and head. You have to have a PT that will listen to you (otherwise you can end up really dizzy and sick after a PT session; that simply is NOT necessary). I'm so glad I have found a good PT who actually listens to me while still challenging me. I can take pain; I just can't take dizzy nausea.

I'm shocked at how bad my injury was, and I'm glad I'm assertive enough to get decent care.... I hope that recovery quickens but I'm happy knowing I am doing all that I can do.
