The poster above has great advice. I'm still searching for a doctor who will help.

I'm far too new in my recovery to have any advice but I just wanted to say that I'm sorry this happened to you. I can feel your frustration, and justified worries. You are very articulate in your post.

This is a good place to seek understanding for yourself and from others who've been there, or are still there.

Browse around and I'm sure you'll find some info that clicks. Even just feeling less alone helps. You're in good company.

About it: October 26, 2012 I fell backward on an icy parking lot at work. I was on Workers Comp for 9 months. My PCS : everyday headaches became once in a while headaches, and neck pain became manageable. Still have occasional mild dizziness, sometimes fullness in the ears, convergence insufficiency, sequencing struggles, short term memory struggles, verbal processing delays. CT neg, MRI neg. Therapies: prism glasses, acupuncture, icing neck, resting, supplementing, Elavil 20mg at bedtime.

NEW: Completed 12 weeks of physical therapy and returned to work full time.

About me: I'm a marketing manager, a mom with a blended family and wife to a heart attack survivor. I believe my brain injury taught me more than it cost me. I'm grateful to still be me!
