Well, my eye hasn't been getting any better from Thursday night. It's still swollen shut and apparentally it wasn't supposed to swell the way it did in the first place- the cut was high enough on the eyebrow to have prevented this.
At any rate, they (my athletic trainer and coach) say that it's one of three different things: first, that I was allergic to whatever it is they shot into the wound to stitch me, second that it somehow got infected, or third that I chipped a piece of skull/bone.
We can't determine between 1st/2nd and the 3rd, because I can't feel any pain. I never felt it when it happened, when they stitched me, and I still can't feel anything because it's all a weird numbing sensation.
The worst part is that I don't really have time to see the doctor again before I leave for home. So, just pray that it's nothing serious, or if it is, that I can get home safely to get it looked at.
((Although, with a day and a half under my belt of not being able to see out of my left eye, I have grown a whole new appreciation for my eye-sight!))

My "Mama" advice is: call home and have them schedule an appointment first thing when you get home. Your own doctor knows you and your history, and you will trust his/her judgement. Bless your heart, you've been through it this fall. Have a safe journey!
