Hello all,

I had a head injury about 2 years ago and have had various problems since then. I hit my head on a cement potter (like the one's that are on the sidewalks that accomodate small tree). I was knocked out cold, taken in an ambulance and treated at the hospital. I had a laceration on the outer corner of my right eye and was given 7 stitches and discharged with no precautionary testing done.

No MRI's
No Catscan's
No Xray's
NOTHING BUT STITCHES!!

My question is does anyone think that I might be able to take the hospital up in court being that they didn't take at serious precautions to my injury except for a few stitches? As you can see below, maybe a CT Scan or an MRI might have eleviated some of my problems before they became escalated.

Symptoms since the injury:

• Constant cracking Joints and Severe Muscle Weakness
• Daily Headaches
• Severe Fatigue
• Dizziness, Lightheadedness and offbalance feeling most of the time. (like seeing bright stars)
• Sensitivity to light
• Increased floaters (many everyday and will not go away)
• Depression
• Anxiety
• Ridged fingernails
• Numbness and tingling in all extremeties
• Frequent urination (like I have to go now)
• Hair Loss from both scalp, eye lids and eyebrows with the slightest pull
• Dark urine with foul odor
• Raised red bumps on chest, shoulders and outer upper arms
• Goosebumps all over when urinating or sitting down to releave myself.

Tests that I have had done thus far:

• Blood Testing to include RA and TSH levels for Thyroid problem
• MRI w/ contrast of brain
• MRI of C-Spine and Lumbar(see page 3 of this post for a descriptive breakdown of the MRI results)
• Hormone Blood Test(negative)
• Urologist(ultrasound of abdomen area and urine culture which came back negative)

Hopefully someone can relate.

Thanks in advance,
Shaggs
