Hello two years ago I hit the top of my
head hard enough to knock myself out. I
never had myself checked; can't afford
it.
That same day and for the next three
months my right eye almost complitly
closedon me.Since then it happens on and
off, but often.
Along with the closed eye, since the day I
hit my head I've been having strong sharp
head pains and also a strong "squeezed"
sensation.
Once in a blue, also I feel like water is
running down my head, and my vision has
blured.
What do I do? I have no medical insurance
and can't afford past the first visit.
Comments, advice, help, a prayer, anything
would help truly.
Thank you

Do you also get severe headaches on an on
going basis? This is truly something that
needs to be at least looked into. No need
to panic, it could be something very
simple but yet needs to be addressed. Is
there any free clinic's in your town.
There sould be. Normally there is one
within a small distance of ones area. I
would research this and go as soon as you
are able. Need to get to the bottom of
what is going on. Head trama in any way is
not good to not have looked into. I truly
hope you find somewhere to go. Call your
local Doctor Refferal service and they may
be able to direct you.
Welcome to our community. Hope we can help
you in some way. Please keep us up to
date.
Praying for you,
Carrie

Yes I do get headaches strong enough that
literally make me stop whatever I'm doing
and buckle my knees; it's kind'a like
being forced to the ground. I don't panic
anymore but, it's something I think about
often.
I was not sure if free clinics existed,
since everybody I know has told me to go
to the E.R. and that I would be billed
later. They also told me, and I thought so
too, that I should expect a rather high
bill, being it's a head injury. Not that
life or health have a price but what you
can't afford you can't afford.
Thank you much for the advice, I will do
my research online on a clinic around my
way. Also appreciate the prayer. Thanks
