I am 2 1/2 years into this. Definitely better than when it started but still a long way from what I was before.

Last, and "The Injury" - June 2010.

Kept working, keeping up within the rules for FMLA, etc. until April 2012, and things just got ahead of me, and I could no longer keep up, with every growing disconcertment.

Out of work since April 2012.

Ongoing problems.

Roadrunner63, right there with you on that! Still waiting to go back to normal too. It's been almost a year for me. Symptoms come and go but there is no rhyme or reason when they come and I think I may just lose my mind if this goes on for much longer

That metallic taste....does anyone know what I am talking about? I mean, after the accident, my taste was off for a few months, and then went back to normal. And it was only with certain foods. When I finally drank my first beer after the accident it tasted metallic. Very strange. Thought it was that particular beer so tried a different one. Same thing. Now, almost 11 months later, the metallic taste comes and goes but it's only with beer. It's very strange.

And I'm still not sure if I will be going to Disney in January. I don't want to waste the money if I can't go on any rides, not to mention paying for the plane ticket. I tend to get nauseous driving in a circle in the car. I always was prone to motion sickness but since my accident it is 10 times worse.

hillie1971 : I am 3 and a half years. I don't want to spook you but hey it is halloween time.

Yes symptoms keep changing on a daily basis and some times hourly basis Doesn't matter if I overdo/underdo or do nothing. I just gave up on finding triggers and has some workarounds.

I had metallic taste but that was because I had olfactory damage (both smell and taste) and did have that metallic taste for some time. It improved a lot though after 2 years. I remember all ENT specialists asking whether I had metallic taste on back of the throat. May be you can check up with them. I assume you have no smell disorder.

Hillie, have you tried vestibular rehabilitation? Some physical and occupational therapists offer it, and it does have a decent track record in helping people with dizziness (it has helped me some). If you do get it, be sure to check into your insurance coverage; it is exorbitantly expensive and my insurance co. twice tried to deny my treatment, without justification. I appealed it twice and got it covered.

I'm at 20 months since my injury, 14 and a half months since a very bad relapse, and 10 months since a second relapse. I've made gradual improvement over the past 10 months, but I have a VERY long way to go.
