Default concussion/hematoma

hi. quick question. I have bipolar and banged my head against a cupboard door last Friday (a week today). I went to ER and they said concussion. Headache still here, and bad at times. I went to dr again on Weds, and he said maybe no concussion, but maybe a hematoma at the site of the contusion. He gave me Voltaren (NSAID) to take three times per day, alternating with tylenol (2x/day). My headache is still bad, and I have pressure around my eyes. Seeing dr again today. I think they may put me on narcotic pain meds. Is there anything I should make sure the dr avoids?

Bipolar meds:
lamictal
abilify
cymbalta
trazodone
ativan

other:
voltaren (diclofenac)
singulair
tylenol

Seeing dr in 1/2 hour. Thanks.
