I wrote about my accident in another forum. I got a copy of the medical report from my ER visit and discovered that the dr. only ordered a CT scan of my neck and not my head. When I saw my primary yesterday, he said he thought I have a concussion. There are also details about the accident on the medical report that are just plain wrong. It says I lost control of the car (I was rear-ended), that the primary impact was to the front of the car, and the force of impact was low, and that the air bag deployed. None of that is true. And this is the hospital where I work! I'm embarrassed, but not surprised. And it means I've been walking around the past two weeks with a probable brain injury. But it would explain why I've been having vision problems. So I feel relieved, but still frustrated. Just had to vent. Cindy

Cindy, I am glad that your Dr. found the problem and now hopefully you will be feeling better soon. I completely understand your frustration. Make yourself a cup of tea, put your feet up and relax. You deserve it. Hugs!

Jeesh! That is just plain scary!
