Or parking barrier if that's what you call it. I walked under it while it was raised forgetting it was there and took a hit to the top of my scalp when it came down. It was a terrible shock but I was able to get in my car and drive immediately after it and upon arriving at my workplace 5 minutes later, I felt sick. Not dizzy or nauseous, mostly anxious sick and my head ached in the spot I was hit but I didn't have a headache. But I asked my boss to call an ambulance and they were asking her a million questions and then they showed up.
Felt my head, felt my neck, checked heart rate, blood pressure, took a prick of my finger (don't even know what that was), several other things I was too anxious to take note of and said I was fine. All I could think was internal bleeding, etc and wanted to go to the hospital but they said "we would take you if we thought there was a need."
It's been almost 6 hours since that but I am not reassured. The spot where I was hit doesn't even hurt anymore but I still can't shake the fears of something happening later and how can they tell I'm fine without seeing inside my head?! I am scared of going to sleep tonight. When can I stop worrying? There's not even a bump which makes me worried there's internal damage but the paramedics weren't a bit concerned about no bump.
Would I know if something was seriously wrong...?
