Vini and Mark, Thanks for your replys, I have been away for a few days so I have not been checking the boards.

As it turns out my daughter stopped taking the muscle relaxants after the third day. They did nothing for her but make her so sleepy she couldn't function. That is the bad news

The good news is that her husband met a friend at their kids' school function. The friend's brother is a leading concussion specialist in our area. He does alot of work as a non partisan authority for injured NFL players. The friend hooked them up and my daughter has an appointment tomorrow.

It is my hope that the new specialist takes her off the gabbapentin entirely. It does help her with the vertigo but there are safer drugs out there for that.

I am hopeful that this doctor will actually help her achieve a more normal level of functioning. I'll let you know how things go. We do know that he will be ordering more tests and one of them is sonography of the head and neck. He said that picks up subtle changes than the CAT and MRIs do not.

He has a very comprehensive practice that includes OT, PT, driving rehabilitation and evaluation and various other neuro diciplines. He also said that he will refer out to a neuro-opthalmologist if necessary.

I think this is the best place for my daughter to be.
