RR,

I'm the same way as you. Constantly fighting between letting go, living life and seeing what happens, and being convinced there is more I can be doing to heal my brain or mitigate my symptoms. I think a healthy dose of both is okay, I just need to learn to not be obsessive in my quest.

I went to a neuro-optometrist 2 months into my injury. He saved me in the sense of prescribing me glasses I needed desperately to cut down on headaches and eye strain. Other than that, I didn't see much use for him. He gave me some tracking exercises to do at home, but otherwise I thought he was too pricey for the treatment I was receiving. He also wasn't very attentive to my vestibular issues and kind of shrugged them off. I am going to a different one in a few weeks to get reassessed, because my tracking is off again, and I need help picking out quality sunglasses. Every time I try to sit outside in this nice weather I get super dizzy and disoriented. Do you experience this?

Best of luck to you with your appointment!
