Default Neurologist Visit Finally

Hello all this is my second post and I just wanted to get some feed back from everyone and also get some advice. On the 16th of March I was rear ended on the way to work and suffered a concussion. At first it did not immediately cause me great problems but as the days went on my symptoms got worse and worse. My regular doctor diagnosed me with a concussion and ordered a CT and a MRI both which came back clean . My condition continued to not improve and all she did was recommend that rest and she would refer me to a neurologist. Well it took forever and she never got me a referral. Finally I switched doctors and my new doctor got me a referal after two weeks. Tomorrow morning I see the neurologist can anyone tell me if there is anything the neurologist can do to speed my recovery up so i can go back to work ? The reason I ask is that I have used up all my leave time and my wife is terminally ill. I need to have income so my wife has things she needs. It is stressful for me thinking I may not have the ability to provide for her. I know right now in the state I am in I cannot goto work as I can't even drive as my dizzy spells and migraines will not permit it. Any help and advice is really appreciated .
