Unhappy Head Trauma

For those who hadn't seen the posting on the EF Forum,
Thurs, June 28, after 5 PM, there was a Mexican who
was fleeing from the Sheriff Deputies - unfortunately,
above all things, it had to end by crashing into my
car.

Both my son and I were injured, while I was the Driver,
this was accident #24 for me (strangely, none of the
accidents were ever my fault - ever) and this man is
a felon and is in jail and will be in jail and is going no
where (not after wrecking 2 Deputy cruisers, damaging
several people's vehicles and causing all kinds of
problems before ending it by crashing into my car).

The worse thing is - I can't get this stupid "GONG"
sound out of my head, the Doctors know, my Level 4
Epi Center know - I've given them the Report Numbers
(I have 2 Case numbers) and yadda yadda yadda.

Both my son and I - our neck hurts, back hurts,
however, because the impact was on the driver's
left side my head hit the window and window frame
and it triggered seizures so I was in and out for awhile
there, while I'm fine so far, but just cannot figure out
why the hospital wouldn't give me any pain killers or
anti-inflammatory medication.

The muscle spasms are literally keeping me awake, and
the pain causes tears to stream down the corner of my
eyes. While my son first refused medical attention, as
he didn't understand that my insurance covers him.
He's wanting medical help.

*sigh*

Yes, I told the ER Doctors & Nurse that, and I told
them about the double vision, it keeps coming and
going. They wanted me to stay, but didn't have my
medication - as my Epi wants me on Brand Name only.
And I already missed one dosage of my med and was
late for my other meds - and was in so much pain,
cold, wet, tired, hungry, and literally frustrated with
the Hospital - I just wanted to go home.

My main concern is my son and my head, the Neuro
I had before warned me of another impact could cause
more problems for me.

I have no idea what my Epi or Level 4 Center is going
to do now - but I'd sure like to get rid of this "GONG"
sound out of my head that's been there since the impact.
It hasn't gone away.
