Should I go to the ER or Save on Money or Die?

This was my big question last night. Let me explain.

Yesterday, My sweet Molly asked if she could call Daddy because she hadn't seen him all day and wanted to see if he would like a hot soft pretzel for lunch. So she called and of course Dan couldn't resist a soft pretzel and a quick chance to see his girls. He headed home from the job with his buddy Vic. So, the great housewife that I am....we pretty much had no food for lunch. Great...Dan is bringing over company and all we have is soft pretzels. So I started some Mac and Cheese, made cookies, got out some veggies and dip. Then Dan says, "Do you think I could have a pickle?" No problem, I ran to the fridge to grant him his wish. (if Dan says jump, I ask how high...if Dan says I am tired, I fluff his pillows and put him to bed....I think you get the point) So anyways, I am bending down getting to pickles off the bottom shelf of the fridge and stand up and BOOM I hit my head on the top of the fridge. WOW that hurt. I didn't faint or anything, but I did have to take a second to get my self back in line. So I go on serving lunch and the guys leave and then I feel sick. My head is pounding, I think I am going to puke, I don't seem to be talking straight, I am very irritable with the girls, and I feel like I am in a fog. I go on with my day, and then Dan comes home. It was perfect timing. He came home and I went downhill. I tell him what is wrong with me and he says I might have a concussion. Hmmm a concussion huh? Well, then I start to think. What if I am having internal bleeding and am going to die. I will never see my kids again. So I mull around the idea on going to the ER to have myself checked out. Well, we got this new insurance plan now where we have to pay a lot if we go to the hospital so I didn't really want to go. Let me get Abbie's paid off before I start having medical bills. So I try calling my doctor at home(he goes to my church and just wanted to see what he thought) Well, he wasn't home, so I called my sister. She said I could die and I should go to the ER right away. Still wasn't buying it, so I called my brother Matt. (he is a real doctor-I think) He tells me that I have a mild concussion and that I should be ok. But I could also have internal bleeding and it could be serious. Hmmm now I was getting scared. So then I snapped at Dan cause I think he thought I was faking it or something so he tells me he is taking me to the ER. I say no and call my doctor's office to have my doctor paged. Well, about a half hour later, one of his associates calls and sound like he is drunk. He tells me to go to bed. Now , he didn't even ask me any of my symptoms or anything. Sorry Dr Czar that I bothered you at 8:30 with a possible life altering question. Dan and I read on the internet that if you have a concussion, you should try not to sleep. Well, I ended up going to bed with a huge headache and a feeling that I may never wake up. Dan was so sweet and set his alarm for every hour to wake me up and check on me. I do feel better today, but still have a pounding headache and still am a little dazed. But then again, that is pretty much a regular day for me. So I didn't go to the ER and saved us on medical bills. And I didn't die. Whew, GOD IS GOOD! (Even when you have a concussion)
