My neurologist was confident that I was going to get better quickly and generally just rushed me out of his office.  I switched doctors and got a better response but was confused at the rate of my progress.  I was prescribed various medications and although I realize that this is common practice, I would have loved to be treated as a person with an injury rather than a machine.  In hindsight, (it has been 10 years now) it really would have been helpful to have a support group that I could meet with regularly as I really did feel isolated at that point in my life.
