Looking for input and recommendations on what to do
First time poster... I (25F) was in a car wreck where I got rear ended by a semi back in November. I hit the back of my head on my head rest when upon impact. Since then I have seen ER Dr's, orthos, PCP, and PTs for concussion, migraine, whiplash, and sciatica. The ortho has taken xrays of my neck and back, all clear - bone wise, just a lot of spasms at the time of. ER took CT of head and neck, also showing the same spasms, but coming back negative for anything severe. I am getting an MRI on Friday and will know more, but really am nervous that I actually won't and that itll be for naught. I have been doing a lot of reading and comparing my migraine to an ON and wanted to get some input on the symptoms that you experience that Google doesn't necessarily give, because they seem to be very similar, and often confused with each other. My PcP and I have tried rotating through several different migraine medicines that haven't worked and we're still trying to find one that works but if this is the cause, then maybe that's the reason? I also have a lot of sensitivity to light but not to sound whatsoever. It starts on the back left side of my head (see image) which is where I initially hit my head in the accident. It will gradually crawl across the left side of my head until it is behind both eyes and I won't be able to open my left eye at all. Do these sound like your symptoms?
