    Dr. Gooch helped me to understand I was not imagining or making up my symptoms after a bad car accident where I sustained a double concussion. The support experts I was referred to help me immensely deal with life. I still rely on the techniques I was given especially when I am tired.

    It’s the worst. Don’t know if I can keep doing this. It’s been a year and a half and it’s absolutely horrible

      Utah Neuro Rehabilitation It’s workers comp and the insurance just keeps denying the doctor’s recommendations and referrals. It’s ridiculous. And my private insurance won’t accept it because they say it’s worker’s compensation’s responsibility but worker’s compensation doesn’t do anything! It’s a huge catch 22 I’m stuck in and it’s horrible

      That is a terrible bind. I have treated patients in this workers comp and insurance bind and it so difficult. I am sorry to hear this. Sometimes legal assistance has been helpful.

      Utah Neuro Rehabilitation Thank you for the encouragement 🙏🏼 I have my first court date on October 31st, hopefully something good will come out of it. I do have a lawyer, I just really wish I had known better at the time and used my private insurance. Hindsight is 20/20 I guess lol

    I have epilepsy and just had a seizure a few days ago and my wife says I smacked my head really hard on our floor. I feel like I may have a concussion but I don't know what to do about it...

      If you have ongoing symptoms after a few weeks, look for a concussion doctor or therapist.

      I pretty much have had intermittent double vision since I was 37 years old you learn to live with it but it does limit you doing certain things driving at night driving in the rain

      Look for a local brain injury association or for a doctor specializing in physical medicine and rehabilitation who treats people with brain injury

    Do you kbow any place in Canada that can help me? It's been just over a month and I tried going back to work but my vision went wonky again and the headaches are brutal!!

    • @UtahNeuroRehabilitation
      @UtahNeuroRehabilitation  4 года назад +1

      I don't know the resources in Canada. In general, doctors specializing in neurology and physical medicine and rehabilitation can help. Also, some optometrists and occupational therapists can do vision therapy. If you find some help, will you let me know. We have recently started a website: brainstormforbraininjury.com. We are trying to post resources for people all over the world. thank you
