but the neck injury has caused me so much grief I would certainly tell anyone who has had a head injury in a wreck that whiplash can come back to haunt you even 2 years later. I wish I would have demanded physical therapy right then. I have the best physical therapist, when I told her the neurosurgeon said I may never get use of my neck back she blurted out a bad word and has been sending me to colleagues for second and third opinions. We shall see what happens.
