Hi Mary - As a first step, we'd highly recommend submitting a request to the CLF HelpLine and seeing if they can assist in finding help: concussionfoundation.org/helpline

I'm an RN that unfortunately got included to work related injury statistics and consequently suffered a concussion II ( PER PQME NEUROLOGIST) statistics since 2014 and has since long been suffering from PCS. After begging to several doctors and neuro specialist that I don't feel right ( right away, I was labeled a malingerer for monetary gain , I was making at least $150_160 thousand a year and Nurse of the Year) a PQME ORTHOPEDIC Doctor ordered an MRI to my neck as well and was found to have LARGE SYRINGOMYELIA C5C6 and inoperable. I was found disabled an on disability retirement by SSA guidelines basing on my medical records and vocational rehab expert . According to my work HR , worker's comp is blocking them not to approved work disability retirement despite I've already attempted but failed 3 times trying to go back to work even on modified hospital receptionist job that rendered me to be treated in the emergency room on my last job tryout after only 2 hours in the job. When I heard you say, give me their phone number and I'll be the one to call them and let them know about concussion, I was elated with hope that you could I intervene in my behalf explaining to them about brain injury/ concussion. My work HR is Ventura County/CA . I hope you can help me shed light about this horrible concussion. Thanks you.
