I would think one would be cheaper than a lawyer.

I still can't believe the things he was saying and wonder if there's a motive to his words.

Anyhow, big hug to you and I hope you find a neuropsych or concussion specialist that can help you.

So far (when you're on WCB) I cannot see doctors outside of this system. I asked my doctor for a referral to a neurologist and he said no we have to wait to see what the WCB panel says.

My doctor will not refer me without WCB allowing it because right now WCB pays for his time as well.

I find I'm having trouble getting through to anyone and the more I push, the more I'm assumed to be an attention seeker rather than a valid case.

I find I'm even doubting my own sanity now that I've been through this. It was like he was using Jedi mind tricks. I didn't know how to play those mind games.

Of course there was motive to his words. His time was paid for (likely handsomely) by WCB to get me off benefits, he tried to convince me I'm delusional about my own pain and health.

Sad to think I'd be better off being cut off, so I could find relief from abuse, and finally be allowed to seek treatment.

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!
