Sorry to hear you thought your neuro exam was less than you expected. You are fortunate he had a med student to take down such a complete history. The short time you spent with the neuro is usually all anybody gets.

The shots may have been Botox or a steroid. You should keep a record of your appointments and any treatments/shots.

Your eye condition needs to be checked by a neuro-ophthalmologist or a specialist such as that.

There are no specific treatments for PCS. Sleep helps but more important are the daytime activities. Quiet rest or quiet activities are the best way to heal.

An MRI would have been a waste of time and money.

Low dose amitriptyline should not be a problem. Have you been taking magnesium and calcium supplements to help with sleeping?

My best to you.
