Update on my head injury [View all]

So I got a CT and MRI. I do have a mild concussion from a really bad blow to the head at work. I had to report it to my supervisor and they had to go over footage to see if I was at fault or I did something I shouldn't have been doing that caused it. But my coworker hit me on accident when they weren't paying attention. Now gotta figure workers comp and medical leave.

I got a splitting headache still. They said to just take basic tylenol and rest. Nothing physical or mentally tolling on the body. Thank you all who told me to go. No idea what would have happened if I didn't. Just scary to be up in a hospital without my parents with 2 masks on.
