Sorry Donna, but I have to disagree about going back to the ER. Maybe it is different in Indiana, but I did not get any real help at the ER and was told to go home and take Naproxen when my GP had told me not to take it because of all the bruises on my legs. My local hospital has been haunting me for money for months now and my lawyer says they can wait. They charge a lot more to people without insurance. Anyway, I also had some stabbing pain just behind my ears - first on one side and then the other and it went away after a couple of weeks. That was four months after my accident.

Alcohol is bad at this time because it can make your symtoms worse and your brain needs to heal.
