Where I've been, and why I'll still be missing.
I hit my head on Friday. I didn't think it was too bad, but
Saturday...I was basically dead. Sunday rolls around, felt WAY better
and spent the day on the lake tubing and stuff...naturally, bouncing
around some more. Monday, went to the doctor...he wasn't too concerned
and told me that I did not have a concussion and to take Tylenol for my
headaches.
By, Tuesday, I was still having horrible headaches. I can't focus on
anything, I'm nauseous. I can't comprehend anything that is new to me.
I can't read and understand what I'm reading. It takes me a really
really long time to do things because I'm also having memory loss
issues.
I called on Tuesday, and the nurse told me that I needed to wait until
Thursday before coming back. By Wednesday, I absolutely cannot
function. I leave work and go to the ER with my mom, as the
receptionist cannot get a hold of my doctor because he is out of the
office.
At the ER, I get a cat scan that shows I've no bleeding and no
fractures. But, the doctor did tell me I do, in fact, have a
concussion. She gave me some serious pain medication and told me not to
go back to work until Monday. If I am not better by Monday, then I need
to go to my regular doctor and be sent to a neurologist.
So, that will hopefully explain my absence...and I will probably be
checking in for PM's and such, and I will of course slowly work on The Andretti's...and continue my pattern submissions. But, I cannot produce much as of now because just waking up and breathing is a chore... :(
