Thank you for that information! I will definitely look into that. I think it could have a huge affect on my symptoms.

I've read lots of people have great success with vision therapy for both visual and auditory processing problems.

Here's the site. There may be a physician near you. Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation Association

Good luck!

aunt kathleen, you are not alone. I just spoke with a doctor that had to give up his career because of a TBI from a car crash. It's a double edged sword talking to him. It's comforting to not be alone, but when he tells his story it's like he is talking about me. I am hearing my issues. That is hard to face. It is hard to understand why were are sitting the bench. He's a doctor, I'm a teacher...we were serving the public. We still have so much to give.

Yes to all you said. Same feelings. Improvements but....sigh.

I went to Dr Zelinksy in Northbrook, Il. Near Chicago. She helped a lot with my visual processing. I get new glasses next week. Is she close to you? Have you read or listened ti the book "The Ghost in my Brain?". So important. May give you the hope you need.

I am getting tired of this. I understand your pain.
