I am within driving distance of Woodbridge, VA and am very much interested in seeing what the functional neurologist there has to offer. Please let me know what your experience is working with him, what he has to offer, and if he is able to help you.

Thank much!

Who did you go to, CBS? There are so few of them listed on the acnb website, which will show you all the Board Certified ones. The one we are going to is Doroski in Woodbridge. The second closest one to us was in Severn MD, and it looked like the third closest was in Harrisonburg. They show you on a map. Doroski has good ratings from patients, and he did actually call me before he left for a long weekend on Wednesday evening to make sure an MRI was done and did not show structural damage. He says he thinks he can help.....we will see, and I will let you know. I may have to postpone the first meeting however, because my headache has gotten very severe and I am not sure I can tolerate this appointment on Tuesday.

Can anyone tell me what this first appointment will be like? I will have to call on Monday and ask them also.

I saw Dr. David Sullivan of Keystone Chiropractic Neurology in Mechanicsburg, PA (near Harrisburg) last summer. He ordered blood work from Pharmasan Labs that indicated neuroinflammation, which he said needs to be treated before I can tolerate eye exercises or other therapy. His approach is to treat the brain inflammation with neutraceuticals (Apex Energetics Neuroflam and X-FLM, fish oil, theanine). Due to pre-existing sensitivities, I was unable to tolerate most of these substances, so I was unable to put out the neuroinflammation fire with his approach. So I'm curious to see how other functional neurologists approach PCS.
