Now I feel like I'm talking to myself!

Anyway, for documentation I want to follow up on this thread.
I went to my D.O. today and advised him of the theory that meditation is processing the trauma of the car wreck I don't remember. The reason I know the sites of injury is because I had my husband call my Dad a few years ago when I started having panic attacks. The pain from meditation happens to be the sites of injury from my car wreck. Interesting ...
So, my doctor was running late and I did my meditation in his waiting room for 5 minutes this time.
Blood Pressure 120/70 (usually way way way higher than that!)
Headache came right back so I rested in the office for 10 minutes while waiting for the doctor. He checked and my right rib cage collapsed again so he manipulated that. My neck was more stiff than it was when he saw me on Friday. He did some other work and most of the physiological problems were found at sites of injury. He looked behind my ear and saw where it has been draining puss.
I think I am going to go down even further to 2 or 3 minutes just to see if I can continue to process the trauma through meditation without these horrible headaches and other physiological problems. Hopefully this will eventually process and I can go back up in a few months time to 10 or 20 minutes.
I just wanted to share this here and I think I am going to start keeping a log of progress and issues I have throughout this journey.
Any advise from more experienced meditators would be most appreciated. I go back to my therapist on Wednesday. She is the one who is encouraging me to meditate. I would love to just be well.
