cerebellarmaniac,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. Carrick's protocol is oriented mostly to structural issues related to traumatic brain injuries. Your injury is disease related and likely does not fall within his protocol. Although, some of his neurochiropractic protocols may help with ancillary issues you may be experiencing.

Carrick's clinic is expensive. I have heard starting costs of $8,000 to $10,000. He has established clinics in other locations.

As I said previously, his protocols may be helpful to some and completely useless to others. It is an expensive experiment.

Please tell us about the ongoing symptoms you are experiencing. What therapies and support have you received to help you accommodate them ?

I have a fine nystagmus in my left eye. It is almost imperceptible. It takes a trained eye to notice it. I also have memory and attention issues. They are much easier to address with work-arounds and other accommodations. Memory and attention issues should not stop you from pursuing a full life. Maybe I can give you some tips for work-arounds. Tell me about how your memory and attention issues manifest.

btw, My memory skills rate in the bottom 5 to 12% of the population so I have had some serious memory challenges to overcome.

My best to you.
