You may experience an increase in symptoms. As I said, just keep on course and you should be OK. You may want to ice your neck. A top hit like that can compress the neck and would warrant being careful with your neck. Be easy and ice it.
My best to you.

Ya know, Mark, I don't think there's anything one can do. As you said, even if I could know, it wouldn't change anything. Worrying too much about re-injury and recovery can be emotionally devastating. I'm trying to find a balance between taking care of myself and trying to happily move forward with my life. It's tough not to worry. It's especially difficult because I've been experiencing improvements, so I want nothing more than my recovery to last, so it's hard not to get concerned about re-injury. But the worry doesn't help. I just hope I didn't set myself back again by that damned low ceiling! Ok. Trying to move on. Cheers, Mark.
