Wow; 15 responses, and no snide comments about the subject line? You guys are slipping.

Seriously, hope you recover quickly. After a shot like that, it's tough getting back there, especially when there are lingering aftereffects.

Agreed.

Speaking from experience, if this is a concussion, you need the rest now. Another concussion so soon after suffering one is bad news.

I wear hearing aids and I think the earpiece got smashed into the ear canal and just bruised it. Hearing is fine, well other than requiring hearing aids. And yes I caught myself flinch a couple of times yesterday on high pitches.

Damn! The only reason I read this thread was that I didn't notice the word "out" in the subject line the first time I read it. Imagine my disappointment.

Just got the Honig mask with Team Wendy pads so far I really like it.
