The first ER I went to they told me I was just nervous/stressed out and I needed to relax [lol!]. The second hospital/ER I went to actually had my medical records from when I was injured. They gave me a CT scan of the head/neck and the only thing that showed was acute sinusitis. So doesn't that rule out anything serious?
As far as the victims program, I just printed out the application for Nevada's Victims of Crime Program. My mother actually told me about it, and good thing I filed a police report when I did. They cover medical bills and prescription medications and a lot more  .. So help is on the way. |
Thats great about the Victims program!!! So happy you will have help paying for all of this. I just posted on your other thread so you can discount half of what i said now that i see you live in nevada, and recently had CT scans that were negative. That is good news. Which means its not a further bleed. But looking like PCS and maybe your neck.

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.
