Buffybot ,'Dirty Girls'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
But the fact that it wasn't hurting and is now hurting that much seems weird to me.
Yeah, that's why I'm concerned. I feel like maybe Urgent Care is stupid for this, because they don't have MRI or CT scan machines, and if I need one, then I'll just have to go to the ER anyway. But the wait at the ER is so fucking long.
I wouldn't go.
I think you'd be manifesting other symptoms besides "it's sore" if you had a serious head trauma.
Yeah, go to Urgent Care, Steph. They'll tell you if you need to go to the ER instead, but maybe you don't. Maybe it's something simple. But don't fuck around with it; it's your HEAD. You know? With your brain in it. Go to the doctor.
It's not sore, like "Wow, that was a tough workout." It hurts, like "Fuck, I got hit in the head with a large piece of metal!"
Can you call an advice nurse? Do you have an 800 number with your insurance?
Nope.

Skimmer.
Go if it will ease your mind, Steph. It's probably fine, but will worrying keep you up? Then go. You know?
It's your noggin, but I wouldn't spend 4 hours in an ER to have them confirm that I was both clumsy and a hypochondriac.
Undoubtedly this will be a contributing cause in you outliving me by twenty years, though.
I was both clumsy and a hypochondriac.
Nah, I already knew that. *Everybody* knows that. I think it's in my Permanent Record. Possibly tattooed on my scalp (just not near where I whacked it).
It would be a way more clear-cut decision if it hurt like this right when it whacked my head. Why would it take 4 days to start hurting? That's just weird and slightly troubling.
Maybe it hurts now because you were sleeping directly on it last night?
