How do I know when I am REALLY able to work
I am a 62 year old female who had a MVA on Feb 9, 2014 hitting my forehead and the top of the right side of my head. This was a second accident with the first being June17, 2013 when I was sideswiped and had a side to side (hit on left side) whiplash. I work as a psychologist so my duties are highly cognitive. One doctor (neuropsychologist) said my visual memory was ok ( she did not test my auditory memory which is bad and headaches are unpredictable and bad) so I should be able to work part-time. Another doctor (neuropsychiatrist) said I had too many post concussive symptoms to be able to work for some time. I know my age is a factor- and there is no easy answer to this- but what is the average amount of time before someone with PCS and over 50 needs to recover before taking on work duties again?
