Short note
Saturday, April 25, 2009
Yesterday I felt somewhat the best in two weeks. My headache was pretty much gone though my shoulders and neck areas are still stiff. I have been able to still do my morning walking and I was able to enjoy it more. Sometimes my left leg still feels funny, somehow I feel that the muscle is weak, but it isn't in pain anymore. I wouldn't believe that by just going to a chiropractor my aches will be gone, but now I am starting to believe the care that my doctor administered to me really worked. I have another 2 more weeks of treatments before she evaluates me again. After a month, I'll be coming less frequently for sure, but this treatment will go on for about 3 months total.
I didn't feel I accomplished a lot this month due to the accident. Everything seemed to stop after April 9. I also felt that my short term memory was a bit too short for my taste, especially at work. The past 2 weeks were a blur, I'm just beginning to feel clearer today. It wasn't just imagination because the doctor said that the brain almost always moved a bit during impact and that could cause the lost of short term memory. My theory was also that I didn't want to remember anything at the time of the impact that was why my brain blocked anything not important :)
I also feel that when I drive I am more cautious, almost terrify sometime, especially from any cars coming from behind. I've never been in a major car accident before so this definitely shaken me up quite a bit. I feel that everybody is driving erratically, I don't trust any driver out there, and I always run a scenario of what I have to do if something happens. In short definition, I'm still a mess.
But, there's a silver lining in all of these, I enjoy driving my new car :) It drives fast (very contradictory from what I just wrote before about driving), it smells good, and it has good accoustics :) I think I can live in my car for a while if I have to :)
