WOW. I cannot believe that happened to you with the MRI. How totally terrifying!!
I'm sorry to hear that your symptoms are still persisting. I know it's very frustrating not to feel like yourself and not be able to do the things you love to do. I'm struggling with the same thing.
The only thing I would say in addition to time is TIME + REST. It sounds like you are still doing an awful lot of stuff. Have you taken time to just rest and have little or no stimulation? To get rest for your body and your brain? If you can do this to a point where you have few or no symptoms and then gradually build back up, you may after time be able to resume your activities. If you continue to push yourself to do your regular activities (as I did), you may be prolonging your recovery.
Unfortunately, I speak from some sad experience here.
Can you take some time off school and just rest?
Good luck!
