Hey guitardude,

First, my main rig is an SE245 through a 6505+ and a vertical mesa 2x12.

Second, I'm in the midst of your situation (recovering from old and new concussions), and while I don't have all the answers, I have learned some things.

First, I'm in an HMO, which means I have to go through my PCP first, He referred me to a neurologist who was...useless. I ended up doing a bunch of research to find physicians in my network who specialize in concussions. These doctors can be in a variety of fields (neurology, sports medicine, family medicine), which makes it tough because of the multi-disciplinary element to concussion treatment.

My recommendation: find a concussion clinic, or a team in your insurance network. I'm in the Chicago area, so there were a few options, but I did have to change my HMO network to be able to see the one I want to see. Depending on your insurance, you might be able to search a database to see what doctors have concussion as an interest or treated condition.

Good luck!
