Yesterday I posted a question pertaining to a head injury I have but there are other details ...Help please?

Question

As I stated I sustained a severe head injury night before last. I also stated that I don't have health insurance and yes, I found out today an ER does have to take me. But I have a problem that I was too embarrased to say yesterday. I have a husband that abuses me and when I left he took the car and cell phone, everything. I'm at my parents cabin and it's pretty remote. He doesn't know where it is that's why I ran to here. My friend brought me here and she's supposed to be coming back on Thurs to pick me up. He's going to deer camp and I'll be able to get my things and an order of protection. I have another question about my injury. What does it mean when the bruise seems to be spreading. What started as a huge knot on at hairline has spread down almost to my eye. It's still very swollen and VERY tender to the touch. I still have a bad headache but on top of it now is this shooting, throbing pain behind my right eye, the same side I sustained the blow. I'm no longer throwing up but the

on a scale of 1 to 10 the pain in my head is about 100, the pain in my neck is an 11, as well the pain shooting down my right arm. I have an herniated disc in my neck. If you need any other details about this injury please read the question I posted yesterday or ask me thru here.

I don't want to be a bother to you but I'm scared and at a loss at what to do. The whole time we were married he managed to keep me from making any friends and my parents are both deceased. If I was to contact someone on here there is not a doubt in my mind that they would immeadiatly tell him where I was all I have to do is make it until my friend gets back. Any help you could give at easing my mind about this injury would be very much apprecialted and if you are in the habit of praying then please add me to those prayers.

Thanks again

For the hateful people who have already answered this and for the ones you may be getting ready to send me more mean and cruel words...I didn't say I didn't have a phone, and if I called 911 there's a 50/50 chance I could give them the directions to get to me and get me to the nearest hospital which would be in little rock arkansas and I'm about 50 or 60 miles from there. Yes, I could call my brother, the only family I have left, to come and get me and he would but seeing how he is in Wisconsin my friend will be back before he could get here. Speaking of my friend, she works 3 days on, 4 days off and she is doing her damedst to get off ASAP so she can get back here. Since she is the only friend that he didn't manage to cut me off from that live in this state, then she is my only hope. I still have some friends in TX which is where he made me leave from and where I will go back to but again they are so far away that Tammy will be hack before they could get here.

Trust me I have exhausted every avenue of hope I have to seek medical attention as soon as humanly possible. But right now at this point there is just no way that is going to happen. So I mistakenly got on here hoping to find some answers as to what could be wrong and what I can do to make sure I don't make it worse. I never dreamed I would get people thinking this was some kind of sick joke and people just being plain mean...people who reminded me of the person I'm trying to escape, who by the way is turning the little town we live in upside down trying to find me.

So PLEASE if you have any tips on how to hang on and not do more damage then please tell me, or if you just have some kind words of encouragement then please share them with me. But if all you have to share is hatefulness and cruelty then please keep it to yourself or hurt somebody else with it, cause I'm our in the middle of nowhere, in pain,scared and just trying to hang on til I can get some help...

I was really surprised by some of the answers I got on here. Some were mean spirited and down right rude and others questioned things I couldn't believe...for instance Debecc at first I thought you were trying to help but by the end well I just don't know. To answer you, he didn't know about the cabin because we have only been married a few years and he showed his anger early on and it was a decision I made early on to keep it a secret so that I would always have a safe haven if need be, as far as my parents, yes they are both dead but they do leave things behind for their kids since they can't take it with them, or at least mine did. It may belong to me and my brother now but it will always be may parents cabin and I won't bother to comment on you thinking for one minute that it could have been a joke. I can only wonder what kind of people you have around you that you could think for 1 minute someone would joke about something this serious...

Answer 1

i didnt get to read your question yesterday, but am a little saddend by some of the responses you got to this one. there isnt much i can say to take your mind off things. but your right. your injury is very seriouse. did he do that to you ? have you tried emailing a health website for advice ? im not in america so i dont know of any there. good luck and ignore the hurtful responses, one day they may need some sympthy!

Answer 2

You seriously need to seek out medical advice. As for your husband maybe someone will mistake him for a deer. Its strange to me that he doesn't know where your parents cabin is though. But anyway, it sounds like your friend works either in a hospital or nursing home by the hours she works. A friend of mine had an order of protection and they don't mean anything unless your husband physically harms you...almost worthless. If he did this to you, why did you not call the police? They at least could have charged him with spousal abuse and that would have started the process. If you are 50-60 miles from L.R. AR then you must be I would venture to say around maybe the Hot Springs area or Russellville?? Just go ahead and at least e-mail the nearest hospital and seek out help. If he is like most deer hunters nothing is going to stop him from going anyway. Get some guts about cha girl and stand up for yourself. Don't mean to scare you or anything but you could have a bleed going on inside your head and this could be life threatening. You said that your brother was the only family you have left but you also said that you are at your parents cabin?? Don't understand. Good Luck and I will include you in my prayers tonight. But at some point in time you have to help yourself. There are womens shelters you know and they will protect you and send you to the right people. Maybe your friend should just call in sick.......or could you be in the Jonesboro area? Just thinking...I really hope that this if for real cuz I sure don't want to waste a good prayer on a joke..

Answer 3

You need medical attention. Throwing up could be a sign of concussion. Look in the mirror and see if your eyes are reacting correctly to light. (Dilating properly) You could have a fracture, or at the very least you have a hematoma. Get to some medical facility, have your friend take pictures of your injury, and call the police. Listen; A man who abuses you DOES NOT LOVE YOU. He has abandoned you and refused to get you any help knowing that you are injured. This could constitute kidnapping as you are there against your will. The very least is neglect. No one deserves this kind of treatment. Abuse is a progressive disease, if i were you, i would call a lawyer at my first opportunity and don't change your mind! You could lose your life someday, and even if you are fortunate enough to get away from him, what will happen to his next victim. Someone like this must be stopped. My heart goes out to you.

Answer 4

I am glad you are out of reach of your husband. You have a severe injury. You said it is spreading and worse now. You need a doctors advise and check up. Perhaps he will advise antibiotics. If you do not have medical facility you need to do some thing fast. I do not know whether in the country you live the medicins are available without prescription or not. Ask your parents or friends to see whether they can speak to their doctor and ask what precautions to take to prevent the infection from spreading.. God bless.

Answer 5

why the heck post things on the internet like this when you know if this is true... go to the ER Email someone to come get you to take you to the ER or for god sakes contact the frickin hospital via the internet. No one here can help you. You have to help yourself. Its your frickin life. By Thursday you could be dead. Probably waiting for the answer you want right here on Yahoo. So save yourself no one else will. GOOD LUCK WITH IT!

Answer 6

You need to take some Motrin, and stay down...relax until you can get checked..you're gonna be alright and as far as the bruising..it may continue for a few days until all the blood seeps up...bruising is just a broken blood vessel and it make take a few days to stop. Don't put your head lower than your waist and use ice to maintain swelling.

Answer 7

You need to take antibiotic , strong one such as keflex 500 or ceclor 750 mg and concerning the bruises are the infection spreading and this prompting rapid administration of antibiotics
good luck

Answer 8

You are in a remote cabin with internet access? Yeah, right.

Etiher this is a sick joke or your husband has beaten you senseless. Call the cops and they will take you to get your stuff and arrange for you to stay in a shelter.

Answer 9

a bruise is pretty much blood under the skin it means either your still bleeding or its just the blood tricked down. get to a dr right away if its spreading it could be a sign of internal bleeding.
