Post so fed up with it all!

So its been about 10 months since my injury I had a CT scan back in August that was fine. But after going to the neuro again last week he sent me for a MRI, I got that done yesterday (I'm sure that will be fine too). I'm still waiting to hear from my insurance about a neuropsych/tbi/cognitive eval. But I'm due to go back to neuro july 3rd. Can't wait to see what the singleminded doc has to say this time. Ughhhh! I'm also due to go away mid july to take care of my father and visit a friend whose getting married soon but I just found out that come August 2nd I don't have insurance?!

Anyway, I'm not sure if I can keep all this going. Between my headaches, the dizzy spells, my lack of focus and balance and well everything else I'm just getting so fed up! Not yo mention he put me on Neurontin for my headaches which aren't that bad and now I'm worse then before. My headaches last longer and are a different kind of headache. When I take then meds at night my heart punds out of my chest, my eyes get bright red, I get soo jittery, and when I wake up in the am I feel hungover!? I'm due to start a morning dose tomorrow and I'm so scared as to how I will react to that.

I'm just so done! I want my life back. I want to be able to runand evjoy the life of a normal 22 year old! I want to finish school and get a good job but from the looks of it I'm going to be living off others for the rest of my life and gain even more weight from lack of exercise. I just feel like all my hopes and dreams have been ripped away only this time I don't know how to push through to get them back. Sorry I'm just so sick of this!!!!
