If ER doctors are told the story, why would they think "brain injury or blown pupil?"
As far as talking to someone else's doctors,
Under HIPPA, anyone can talk at a doctor about anyone; the doctor can listen ,but cannot respond to anyone other than his/her patient.
I have been advised to let my H's pdoc know what is going on when he was in an episode. I could call the doctor and talk ("report"); the doctor could use the info I gave; yet, could not tell me anything.
I hope he will agree to check in with doctor though!
I am sure you are very concerned!
