Has anyone tried this???
Yesterday was a super long day... Started with my neurologist appointment at 8:30 where the front office staff had no idea I was there for over an hour even though I had followed their instructions and signed in and sat down... went ok however, she has me out of work for another month... she told me to go swim... anyone tried this? make you dizzy? Next was a Chiropractic apt... followed by functional massage on my neck and traps... this has been helping a lot, breaking up scar tissue and getting the tension out of my neck.. Then acupuncture... this was ok, I was not sure what to expect... I got VERY dizzy though... is this normal??? Then off to my son (5) pre-k "graduation" ceremony... yes, crazy, I know... however, is what it is... Not home until 8:30 last night... needless to say I am TIRED today... I think i will be sleeping a lot today!

The Start: MVA, t-boned, on 1-12-14 (my sons 5th birthday) and did not think anything of it.. my back hurt on site but everything else seemed ok. Lost about 10-12 hours from about 3 hours after the accident to the next day...Experienced terrible brain fog for over a month, plus intense headaches, nausea, dizziness, cognitive difficulties, disorientation, no short term memory, depression and just an overall hangover feeling daily. Current Situation: I'm about 7 months in and my local neurologist has waived her white flag and therefore I am headed to Dallas to be seen (I have family there). The headaches are still daily. I have nausea, dizziness as well. Drugs I have been on- Vicodin (off), Naproxen (off), proanolol (off), topamax (off), cataflam (off), Midrin (off), Flexeril (off) and now Namenda XR (off), Nortrptylin (off), Verapamil (off) Therapy- Osteopath, Vestibular and balance therapy, fuzion/soft tissue massage, acupuncture Drs- ER (no help), GP, Chiropractor, Neurologist and Osteopath |
