Close Chronic Pain

Hi, I'm Laurieannie. I suffered a severe head injury when a board fell and hit me on the head 2x's, and neck once in feb.2000. I now have post traumatic stress, three neck vert. dislocated, they can't be fused or I'd lose all movment. I have all sorts of post concus...problems. The synapsis was interupted...so I went through one year of partial amnesia. I take 12 pills a day on good days. I have vertigo, slight blindness, good days-bad days.
