Hello,

I wanted to ask to see if anyone has any recommendations. I'm currently at a loss and have ongoing severe symptoms for 3.5 years from a motorcycle accident. Lightheadedness, brain fog, chronic fatigue, infrequent depression, etc.

I must say that I have made progress over the years, but my lingering and most debilitating symptom currently being extreme lightheadness when in any setting with artificial lighting, background noise, etc. When mental focus is required symptoms intensify to the point where I need to excuse myself for fear of passing out. My vision also narrows and I feel as though I have a hard time seeing/focusing on objects. This has been ongoing and happens consistently each time I am in a restaurant, shopping mall, etc.

I have been reading on dysautonomia. A possibility in my mind. I also think that inner ear is a large part of it. I have arthritis in my TMJ now (diagnosed) from the accident and causes clicking, popping, ear fullness, etc. My neck is also a mess. Constant discomfort, aches, cracking when moving it, etc. So many possibilities, single or multiple it's almost impossible for a person who isn't well and already has a hard time focusing to get to the root cause and docs are not helpful.

Any suggestions appreciated. Wondering if vision therapy is worthwhile, or if the source could be mostly neck related (one thing I haven't done is chiro - but wondering if safe given the extend of my symptoms/neck), or whether it's just a brain injury I will need to deal with for forever. I just wish I knew how to narrow down the main source of the issue so that I could focus on it. I have no idea what additional avenues to seek. I have been to several docs, tons of tests, etc. Most recent being another MRI 2 days ago on neck/brain. Waiting for results. Just about done with this sh***.
