Yikes Catrin, sorry that it is indeed a concussion. I hope you don't see this response until you are officially "allowed" back online!
Hope by the time you do read these responses, you are feeling back to normal!

Plus one. Getting away from a computer screen for a few days is not necessarily a and thing at all.
Day 7, well 6.5 to be more exact. Not back to normal yet, but I do feel more human. Headed back to the office today for the first time, only working half-days this week as I simply cannot limit my screen time in the office. If this is a mild concussion, I hate to see what a more severe one is like! Still have the headache, though it's bearable. I've learned my brain's warning system when I start doing too much - cognitively speaking. Walking outside is fine, and easy KB swing workouts are fine. Haven't driven more than short distances yet, so took the bus to work today. I think I will be able to drive tomorrow, time will tell how I feel.
Lots of knitting & audio-book listening. Not quite how I had planned to spend the holiday weekend but considering the alternative I will NOT complain.

Glad the recovery is progressing. It scares me to think that I did everything wrong. I rested for one and a half days and felt better, and then went on a 30 mile ride. I had weeks of headaches and neck pain after that. Every time I open my car door, I am careful, so that point doesn't slam me again!
Take it easy, and don't work too hard.

Glad you're mending. What was it like, not being on a computer every day?? I can't even remember a day like that.
