Thank you all for your replies.

Mark, thanks for the information. It is being handled by workers comp.

My anxiety has calmed down a lot, although I know it's not down nearly enough yet. I'm trying to get into counseling but I need to do that on my own somehow because workers comp is already giving me problems about seeing a neuro optometrist (recommended by my physical therapist), and I don't have any health coverage or income to pay for it. I applied for Medicaid so I'm waiting on that.

I know anxiety is definitely contributing to all of this, but I honestly don't think this "fog" is all anxiety. I'm really not sure to explain it but I've never felt anything like it before. It's like....I can see perfectly fine, everything technically looks normal (the first two months my vision was kind of blurred though) however everything is just totally "off" and dreamy. And it's super hard to focus. Similar to a mix of being buzzed or if you've ever smoked pot, but not exactly either. It's very unsettling.

I notice it's also extremely hard to concentrate on more than one thing, when previously I was always able to concentrate on multiple things without even really thinking about it. And like, if I'm looking through one of those metal fences, it's really hard for me to focus on the fence or whats beyond it and my head gets all weird. I don't really get too many headaches anymore though.


I'm by no means trying to knock anything you said or say it's totally wrong, I know my anxiety is an issue, I just know it's definitely not the only issue going on here. I also get this really strange feeling where my head will feel totally empty. I'm guessing that's all just part of this whole process as well?

I'm expecting the mri to be normal since the ct scan was. I just wanted it to be on the safe side

Again, thanks for all the imput so far
