Main symptoms are brain fog, difficulty concentrating, fatigue, lightheadedness, sensitive to noise, unable to tolerate any alcohol(not that this is such a bad thing but I'd like to enjoy a beer every now and then).
I just did a middle inner ear test ordered by an ENT and my vestibular function, hearing, and tracking objects were normal.
I'm seeing an optometrist tomorrow to hopefully get a more detailed vision test. I was at U.S. open for tennis recently and it was impossible for me to watch from the side view(looking left to right/back and forth) without severe strain. Once I changed seats to behind the player so the ball was coming at me, I had no problems. In my physical therapy, tracking left to right and diaganol increased my brain fog/headaches by quite a bit.
I started to see great improvement after acupuncture. It reminded me of how I felt before my accident. Then I tried to get off the amitryptaline and started to feel much worse. I also tried to study new material for 3 hours(which I haven't really pushed myself since my accident) and I felt awful the next day.
I'm thinking of trying NUCAA chiropractor next to see if that improves my symptoms. I'm also trying to rest more and realize that if I do see improvement, I need to take it very easy in pushing my limits.
