It sounds like your GP happens to know more about TBI that the neuro. That is not uncommon. Often, Physiatrists (Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation doctors) are good at helping someone with a brain injury.

Please stay away from bridges. Try to find someone who you can talk to who understand PCS. Have you checked if there is a Headway clinic nearby?

My best to you.
Thank you...I can't tell you how much it helps to speak to people here who understand.
