Or insurance adjusters :)
Aug 3rd I fell down som stairs and went head first through a wall at work. Since that day I have had a perpetual headache, neck pain and ankle pain.
Drs determined brian bruise, whiplash and broken bone in my foot.
We are trying to deal with the bone in foot with cortizone as its very tiny and shouldnt be a big deal but not really working.
Neck has been constant chiro and massage and its a little better but still stiff and hurts a lot
Head is scaring me: I have had a headache since Aug 3rd. Pain level 3-5 always. I dont sleep for too long at a time. It hurts. Various levels of lighht sensitivity at times. The part thats really bothering me is that I will tell people the same thing several times and not remember telling them. Also I will be talking and I will get "word stuck". Means I know what I am trying to say and I evne "know" the word i want to use and I cant get it out - it just wont come out and I end up having to find an alternative word.
Since moving I cant get a neurologist to see me since its a comp issue. I write some of this stuff down but I tell it all to my doc. I am starting to worry the headache will last forever and the brain lock as well.
I am guessing this will end in some kind of confrontation with the comp/insurance people (maybe not) any adivce on what I should be doing preparing for that day ?
