Still Alive

[hummingwolf]

Just noting here that I am, in fact, alive, though I'm still not much in the mood for saying anything. Part of the reason I wanted to post tonight is that today I managed to hit the back of my head hard on the bottom of the bathroom sink (yes, I'm talented) and, though I didn't lose consciousness as far as I can tell, I've been half-wondering ever since whether I had done any serious damage to my poor, pitiful brain. Today was the kind of day when I had most of your standard concussion symptoms before hitting my head, so it really hasn't been much fun.

Anyway, it's been over twelve hours since the accident and I'm still conscious and my pupils look okay, so I plan to ignore the headache, the ringing in my ears, etc. and go get some sleep soonish. This is my note to say that as of tonight I'm still alive, and I sincerely hope that I don't wake up dead. :-)

i've walked into walls in the dark and fallen out of bed,and worried about the same thing. i hope you are still kicking and your head is okay!

I'm still kicking! I'm very tired, though, and still feeling a lot like I did right after hitting my head. Then again, I get migraines all the time anyway, so this may just be what I'd be feeling like anyway. It's hard to tell.

All I know for sure is that I'm going to be extra careful to get plenty of rest and keep a steady level of anti-seizure medication in my bloodstream for a while.

Damn! I've done that too, I laughed once and threw my head back against a very hard wall. :(

Hope you'll be fine! *hugs*
