Ouch

While waiting for a traffic light this morning a car hit me from behind and I felt my neck crack. The dr. confirmed what I already suspected, the symptoms I have are those of a whiplash.

I have to take it easy and ‘listen to my body’. Paracetamol will have to do for now, if the pain gets worse I have to go back to the dr. and she will subscribe ‘muscle-relaxers’.

Having heard so many horrible stories about a whipslash, I’m not too happy at the moment. The dr. was very positive and told me that in many cases the symptoms subside in several weeks time… I just have to be patient.

Fingers crossed!
