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

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:

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:

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.

Nikko:hug::hug:
