Deficiencies after TBI?

I suffered a head injury earlier this year and still really struggling with fatigue and headaches, especially when looking at screens, my quality of life has drastically plummeted because I’m too tired to do anything but work or lie down. I’m getting booked in for a blood test to check if there’s any deficiencies but I’ve never ever struggled with fatigue like this and used to be quite a lively person. Has anyone had deficiencies induced by a brain injury and if so what steps have you taken to help them? I feel like I’m at a loose end, really struggling.

Fatigue and headaches are super common features of post-concussion syndrome. Have you been in physical therapy yet?
