Ouch! Nasty 🙁

Do you have any Rescue Remedy to take for the shock?

Here's the website of NHS Direct who say they are available 24/7:

and they give an 0845 number you can ring.

Or you could ring your GP, who should have a recording giving an emergency number for you to call.

Be aware of the possibility of delayed concussion. A few years ago I hit my head on a cupboard door while making my morning tea and thought I was OK. At 4.00 pm delayed concussion kicked in and I had to ask a neighbour to drive me to the doctor.

I'm sure you'll be fine, but do try to talk to someone to put your mind at rest. 🙂

Hope you are feeling better AmethystFairy. I think you should call NHS 24 and see what they advise. Sending a big Reiki hug in the meantime.

Glad you are a little better Amethystfairy. Arnica cream is excellent for bruises and homeopathic arnica is what we use if any of us has had an injury - helps get over the shock, so we keep some available at all times.

Hope you continue to improve.

Love and light

Hi,

I would go straight to a solicitor that specializes in head injury, I had the same issue too and went to [url]Head Injury Claims: No Win No Fee Brain Injury Compensation Solicitors[/url]. They helped me out a lot when i was going through a tough time
