What does my attorney mean when he says to seek treatment?

Since you are currently represented by an attorney, I am unable to give you any advice except to advise you to contact your attorney. Your attorney should be more than willing to explain what he means. Best of luck!

As a general rule you should be following the advice of your treating doctors as to what testing and treatment to get. However, it is sometimes true that your treaters are not equipped to deal with a TBI and your attorney could actually mean that you need alternate treaters that are more aggressive in diagnosing and treating your condition? Or if you are not following treatment and testing recommendations of your treaters, it could be that your attorney is suggesting you get the treatment and testing being recommended? The usual way you get treatment for a TBI is to have neurological and neuropsychological testing. After the testing is done, it is usually the neurologist and/or neuropsychologist who then suggest proper treatment. You would want to follow their recommendations, which could include occupational therapy, physical therapy, cognitive therapy, etc. In Michigan you auto insurer will pay for all necessary medical care, treatment, testing, therapy, etc.

Go to a doctor.

Neuropsychiatrist will test you comprehensively and tell you if you need care and if so what kind. They may not be in all towns, but you will surely find them in Charlotte, Raleigh, Durham, Greensboro/Winston-Salem

Your attorney cannot give you medical advice. What he/she is saying is that, so long as you continue to suffer symptoms, you need to keep seeking medical treatment and follow the advice of your medical providers. Sounds like you should continue to see the neurologist, and have testing done to better diagnose your issues. If your eye is still dilated, you should being seeing an ophthalmologist and following his/her recommendations as well (unless the neurologist is handling it).

See a neuro-psychologist and get a neuro-psychological evaluation.

You have gone to several doctors for an evaluation, but none has prescribed any treatment. Without a valid injury you do not have a solid case, hence, the message get treatment.

Proving the extent of your injury will be based on testimony from your treating physicians. You mention that you have the symptoms for TBI. However, you have stated that any doctor has diagnosed you with TBI. If the Neurologist or Eye Doctor were unable to determine what is wrong with you, normally they would keep administering tests until they can diagnose the problem, or would refer you on to another specialist, unless they do not think anything is wrong. Lawyers are not qualified to refer you to doctors for help, although some lawyer's do. Normally, if a lawyer refers you to a doctor, it messes up your case because the doctor will be perceived as a hired gun for the attorney. You need to ask you doctor for advice on where to go from here .

It means that if your symptoms persist, you should meet with your doctors and follow up on their recommendations. We are lawyers, not doctors. You have a duty to mitigate your damages arising from someone else's negligent conduct and that includes following your doctor's advice and seeking treatment.
