Smile 5 months pcs

I know my Dr will tell me to wait for a year as it will go away but I was doing quite well until Xmas with only dizziness when I moved my head in sleep and less head pain. I got busy over xmas and crashed hard after with symtoms coming back like before. Scary

I started slowly doing a bit of work but any kind of stress gives me head pain so I've backed off a bit. I went away for the weekend and have had vision problems that seem very odd, like 3D issues and sporadic weird spacial feelings. The head pain is back again too...does this indicate too much activity with weekend away and starting work? I'm self employed so really messed up with not working 5 months.

I went to my first meeting yesterday and there was a guest speaker and it was too hard to hold my vision on him and when they showed stats on the TV screen I couldn't read them fast enough and felt slow and stupid which I know I'm neither.

The psychiatrist did trigger point injection and prolotherapy on the neck and shoulder area and although terrible painful for weeks it helped for a short period of time. She won't do any more though and suggested I retire and go to a pain clinic as she doesn't know why I have pain.

Thank you for reading and any suggestions you might have, I feel isolated with this injury and try to act "normal" but really just want to be alone in my home with no distractions. The longer I am away from work the worse if gets as I know I'm loosing customers etc.

Thank you

Susie
