mollymum,

Good for you. What a find. Just having someone who listens is such a blessing. Has anybody suggested equine therapy? It can help the brain re-establish gate cadence. Something about how the gait of the horse stimulates the brain to get the motions back.

ALL,

The use of the other disciplines can be great. There is a need to be cautious in selecting some of these specialists as the wrong specialist can also write somatoform in the medical record and prevent further access to care. This is not a reason to not pursue other specialties. Just a word of caution in the selection process. Be extra cautious if an insurance company or IME, QME, etc makes a referral. They usually work against the injured worker or injury victim. In those cases, an well informed plaintiff's attorney may be able to help with a referral.
