At first I thought I would get over everything right away and be back to work in a few days. Boy, was I wrong. I was off for over a month and could only go back part time. I have learned to adjust my timeline to extend to at least a year, maybe more. One thing that has been very helpful to me with this site is finding out that it is normal for this to take a very long time to heal. Reading the posts has taught me a lot more than my visits to the neurologist every did. Thank you.
