I'm in the wars today :( . I might have whooping cough, some people in my class have had it recently and I've injured myself. We were on an excursion today and I fell off the swing backwards and landed on my head :( . It was scary, I couldn't breathe for about 30 seconds, and I think I broke my finger and now my neck it sore ( not broken!!! ). My head might be cut as well but I haven't checked. My finger is splinted now and my head and neck hurts :( . Just a rant :eek: .

OMG Ratzy that is not good at all. You sound like me more and more each day.
Obviously you are now at home.

Now you need to go see a doctor, let him check out your sore neck, could be whiplash, as well as your head, could be a slight concussion. Let him see to your finger as well, great that they splintered your finger.
We must not take chances with all the above injuries.

Thanks Ant! I will probably be going to a doctor anyway, to get tested for whooping cough. We are going to a party tomorrow, my uncle's, and he's a good doctor. Don't think I have concussion, I don't feel dizzy or confused or anything. Thanks :)

Just be very careful especially with concussion.
My guys played rugby, had concussion many times.
You don't have to feel dizzy or confused to have concussion.
I recall an incident, where Sean, (was writing an exam the following day) and started feeling terrible and shaky. It was a slight case on concussion.

A teacher was watching me the entire bus trip home ( hour and a half ) and says I haven't got concussion. My vision is fine, no balance issues..... I've had worse :)

Poor you Ratzy!

Hope you are better soon! They say bad things come in 3's so at least that should be it for a while as the swing hurt you twice!!

Take care of yourself.
