Hi everyone.

This is my situation. I will be at two years pcs in a couple of weeks. As far as doctor's go this is my history...

Saw GP for two months after accident... Then referred to...

Neurologist for about 3 months- did mri's, eeg.. tried a bunch of meds. He then prescribed a medication erroneously for me. When he asked about my medication schedule he freaked out about the dosage and told me to stop taking it. The next time I mentioned it he brushed me off saying I should go back to GP and that I was better. Putting two and two together he was covering his back. He did not apologize but said "you're young, you' re fine" (side effects affected my heart).Of course being a perfectly healthy person before my PCS I had no heart tests. Now, I have a small issue, but an issue neverless but that can't be proven related directly to the med (Imitrex). Long story short I felt discouraged with my neurologist experience.

GP- saw him until about 1 month ago . He was the primary source of medical supervision that I have been having since Nov 09. To be honest he did not do much for my PCS but listen and give me prescription for PT and Zofran. Honestly his favorite sentence was "Well... We don't know much about brain trauma".

The last appointment that I went to he said some innapropriate and unprofessional things to me.I was speechless and shocked. I don't want to get into it but I had to change doctor's immediately. It has been about a month and I am still affected by it just typing it.


I have now been assigned a brand new doctor. I have been in one time for an unrelated issue (needed some antibiotics) and initial assessment of my health history. She did not discuss PCS at all and to be honest I was surprised but figured that she was not familiar with it. Also I was quite sick and just figured she only wanted to discuss that.

So... now I given a neuropsychologist's name and recommendation. Should I go? I did not have any type of test/ assessment initially after the injury. I would need assistance with transportation to and from the office and it will take away from my rest time. Will there be any treatments / exercise that I will be able to do?
I would love to have someone knowledgeable treating me, but I am just causing a lot more stress? I am hesitant to see another doctor.

Mark and anyone who has been to a neuropsychologist, will you please add your two cents?

Thank you all!
