IsItFridayYet?
Thursday afternoon, Wee and I were in a little car accident. We were traveling 30-40mph and were t-boned on the driver's side by another car.
Everyone walked away, tho I did hit my head on the side window and have, I think, I minor head injury. As expected, I have/had a pretty substantial headache. Friday, however, I had a lot of "blonde moments", so I decided to see my doctor. Neuro exam was all as to be expected, and being late on a Friday, we opted to not do CT or MRI. He told me not to take anything more than acetametaphin (I had been taking ibuprofen) and to call if anything got even slightly worse.
My head is still pounding, but I can't say its worse. I feel less disorented than I did on Friday, tho I'm still doing stupid stuff fairly routinely (milk in the pantry type stuff). This afternoon, I decided if I was going to die, I'd be dead, so I dug into the ibuprofen bottle. I've been alternating ibuprofen, acetametaphin, and one dose of excedrin. Tho my headache decreased andd the pain I was feeling was more in the base of my head and neck and more tolerable, I am now running a low fever, despite the medications.
doctor gave me his home number, but I dont know if a fever is related to a head injury at all? I don't think anything more is goinig on, but I'd sure like to feel better. I'd like to go to work tomorrow!
Any experience?
