Sure, there’s a massive amount of radiation involved, and you really ought to minimize exposure whenever possible, but let's be realistic: it remains the gold standard for getting a rapid, reliable diagnosis when you need to check for brain bleeds... If you're dead set against a CT scan, fine, but if things start taking a turn for the worse—specifically if you deal with nausea, vomiting, dizziness, or intense headaches—you absolutely have to head straight to the ER and let the doctors there decide on the next course of action...

If I were in your shoes, I’d head straight to the ER to get a CT scan just to rule out any kind of internal bleeding; even though three weeks have crawled by, it’s still worth the peace of mind... and then, down the road, you could probably look into an MRI to get a much clearer picture of whether there was any actual damage to the brain tissue

I’ve got a bill here that’s seen better days—it’s practically falling apart at the seams. Is there actually any way to swap it out for a crisp one somewhere, or am I just stuck trying to smooth it out and hope for the best?
