Concussion: Not all concussion have positive mri, mild concussion can present with the symptoms u described, and can get better with symptomatic treatment.

Most likely: Symptoms of concussion may take weeks or months to resolve. Be patient. Check with a specialist. You may need to reduce physical and cognitive exertion until symptoms improve.

Yes.: Dr. Levy, i believe your symptoms will get better. I am not an expert in post concussive treatment. I am sure you have great doctors to call upon for expert treatment. Time does help. Three months I am sure seems like a long time however nerves and the brain take a long time to recover from such injury. A negative MRI is reassuring. You should have a visual field test to check your vision health.
