I can hear the panic in your voice, and I am so sorry that there seems to be some "over positivistic" interpretation of your testing by WCB.

Although expensive, do get a neuro-pyschologist who is your advocate. You need someone to help you, not WCB!

In addition to getting the raw data of your neuropysch testing, if you see a neuro-opthalmalogist, they can also test your visual processing speed.

The prism glasses sometimes helps, but the disorientation and slow processing may need specific visual therapy.

I cannot imagine how with all your struggles in what setting and at what pace WCB thinks you can work.

I often think that housework is a good indicator of where you are in your recovery. If you can master grocery shopping, cooking and some chores, then it might be time to go onto the next challenge of community work/volunteer work and then actual employment.

If not, you need to rest, heal and pace yourself.

Deep breaths and find someone to help temper WCB's expectations!
