Mark is right.. and today is a horrible day... head is killing me... woke up not knowing what day it was... So better... well yes and no... some days are GREAT! some days are really bad! but not every day is bad... and since my accident I have not done much of anything... I have been out to dinner for date night with my husband 3 times since 1-12... I have worked a total of 5 days since then, not all in a row... I have seen countless doctors and have been on more meds than I know what to do with... everyone has a different treatment plan and a different head... so take this with a grain of salt...

The Start: MVA, t-boned, on 1-12-14 (my sons 5th birthday) and did not think anything of it.. my back hurt on site but everything else seemed ok. Lost about 10-12 hours from about 3 hours after the accident to the next day...Experienced terrible brain fog for over a month, plus intense headaches, nausea, dizziness, cognitive difficulties, disorientation, no short term memory, depression and just an overall hangover feeling daily.
Current Situation: I'm about 7 months in and my local neurologist has waived her white flag and therefore I am headed to Dallas to be seen (I have family there). The headaches are still daily. I have nausea, dizziness as well.
Drugs I have been on- Vicodin (off), Naproxen (off), proanolol (off), topamax (off), cataflam (off), Midrin (off), Flexeril (off) and now Namenda XR (off), Nortrptylin (off), Verapamil (off)
