3 weeks after my accident, i went back to work for 3 shifts.....big failure. I then went back to work at the 3 month mark and lasted for 2 full months before my symptoms became so bad that my manager staged an intervention and refused to let me work until i saw my neurologist again, and i was taken out of work for over 3 months. So i am now at my 9 month mark and back to work for a few days now. My hours arent guaranteed as i am just picking up shifts until i find a permanent job. I have a big interview this morning for another hospital within our system in the CCU/MICU!! It is a part time days position. So 2- 12 hour shifts a week. Wish me luck!

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.
