You’re right Lori, having a timely referral to a specialist is really important. I hope your doctor takes your feedback well and puts it to good use.

She said it would be a few weeks before I was back to normal, yeah right! My daughter finally found the Colorado Concussion Clinic in Denver for me and they have started putting me on the right path to dealing with this. Unfortunately it took 4 months before I found these people. I have taken a ton of information back to my doctor so the next time this happens to someone, hopefully they won’t have to wait as long as I did! This should be a standard part of medical training!! Also, while I was in the emergency clinic after my accident, no one thought to take photos of my injury and I was in no shape to think of it. That would have been really helpful for my lawyer in my court case now. More attention needs to be paid to these kinds of injuries on the whole!

I’m so sorry to hear that you are not receiving the support you need. Unfortunately I don’t have the answers to your questions, perhaps contact your local politician to see if they can give their voice to your case.

I wish someone had told me to get legal help when it happened. I wish someone would help me understand why I must suffer and lose everything I’ve ever worked for because I suffered a head injury at work (I was a teacher). I wish someone could explain to me why workers comp in NYS is allowed to deny treatment that my doctors and their own doctors say I need.
