Yes, those certainly are the symptoms that correspond with PCS, however, the majority of people with PCS are relieved of their headaches in less than 3 years and most in less than 12 months. If your symptoms are getting WORSE instead of better then, it is UNLIKELY you have PCS and you'll have to search for another explanation. Please rate 5 STAR as an encounter and write me at: www.bit.ly/drdariushsaghafi with more questions.
