Hi Everyone,
It has been awhile since I've posted here--I had a severe concussion from a bike wreck back in March of this year while training for the upcoming cycling season with a brief LOC. Although most of my symptoms have resolved (nausea, headaches, vertigo, and much of the fogginess is gone), there still remains the following: * A near constant light dizziness and disequilibrium. * Light sensitivity, esp. to fluorescent lights, which causes dizziness * When this disequilibrium occurs, I tend to then get brain fog. * I seem to have a problem with one dimensional vision. * When I walk, often it seems like the horizon is *tilted* I did get an analysis of my vestibular system and everything checked out very well (they said that I could do some higher level balance stuff). I continue to cycle and run, as that makes me feel better. I have also continued to work, although it has been a real struggle for me because I work under fluorescent lights. The dizziness causes EXTREME anxiety for me. I am going to see an OT again and also have my vision checked; it seems like my main issues must have to do with my vision. Has anyone had success with prism glasses to assist with getting vision and balance back to normal? I think this is my last hurdle. Thanks to everyone for the great help on this forum. Aside from figuring the dizziness out, I have to say that this does get better! Thank you. |
