Your doctor has no evidence to support his claim that your concussion has healed. Obviously a WC doctor. They rarely have a good understanding of concussions.

Be very careful if you are going to be on the road. It would be better if you can work in the yard where the public are not at risk. Loading salt and sand or whatever there is to do in the yard would be a good start. I'd hate to see you in a 15 ton truck driving down the road and turn your head and get dizzy.

Stay safe.

My best to you.

Back at work they got me cleaning inside building. When I look in mirror in bathroom feel dizzy and when I walk and look at metal grating when I walk. Otherwise thank god no headache just a little wobbly when I stand still I rock from side to side. No headache vision or neck problem at the moment. Thank God.

Have you asked to get tested for vestibular issues ? You should also ask to be tested for vision issues, such as convergence insufficiency.

Were you specifically tested for convergence insufficiency ? Sometimes, a behavioral optometrist does this testing.
