Dear Befuddled,
Ouch!
I hope that you are resting and healing. Does a hot bath help?

Mari

Thank you all!

I went to the emergency room early yesterday morning but they did not check for conconsion. Although, I've had one before and the docs don't do anything but tell you to take it easy. I'm not too with it today though on count of feeling woozy. And I am stiff today. I know that I to have whip lash. That was my diagnosis.

ugh. No fair. Absolutely crapy deal, my love.

I am so sorry you fell. You rest and take it easy.

I had whiplash last year about this time. I am SO sorry. It is not pleasant.

I really hope you don't have a concusion. But take it really easy and stay down please, just in case.

You poor sweetheart. :hug:

Oh no...............take it real easy. Where and how did you fall?

Did you hit your head?

Feel better soon.....

Hugs, Nikko:hug:

Oh Barb...I know how you feel...I fell on Tuesday. Luckily my behind took the brunt of the fall! No need for the MRI!:D Now two days after the fall I am dealing with the pain in my hips. Oh the joys of FM!:rolleyes:
How are you feeling today? Did they give you a collar?

Dear Barbara
 

I hope you will be feeling better soon. Yes, bed is the safest place for you right now. i too am curious about the collar... is't that staple for whiplash?

I don't know about that wooziness, don't get why they didn't check for concussion, but stay put until your head clears up and if it doesn't in a day or so... i would go in again.

meanwhile... well, avoid stuff like this
:Excited:

why does life have to be such * PAIN *

:Sigh:

~ waves ~ :hug:

How are you feeling today?

I too don't understand why they didn't check for a concussion.:confused::eek:

Please let us know how you are doing, hopefully feeling better, if not go back to the ER ASAP.

Did you fall on the ice. I had to go out a couple of days ago and I was amazed at how many people have not cleared their sidewalks AT ALL. We've had three people killed in Massachusetts because they had to walk in the street due to unshoveled sidewalks. People are unbelievably self-centered and inconsiderate. I was scared half to death -- I was in the street next to some kind of humongous snowbank stripping 'thingy' -- man, that thing was huge. It's a good thing he saw me and kept an eye out for pedestrians and other smaller sized critters or I would have been a serious pavement pancake.

Some towns around here fine you $100 if you don't clean up after a storm. Apparently, my town is not one of them. That's on my TO DO list for the new year ;)

I hope you feel better. And, please-please go back to the EW if you're still feeling wonky. Some of those people are not at the top of their class (if you know what I mean).

BIG HUGS.

Barb :hug:

Barb

If its not better in a couple of days. Take yourself to your regular doctor.

You could also have a post concussion syndrome. And they are not any
fun at all.

Honestly they can be very rough. So if its not better get it seen about.
