आपके प्रश्नों को मैं पूरी तरह से समझ पा रहा हूं।
आपकी इस समस्या को पूरी तरह से निदान करने के लिए मुझे और जानकारी की आवश्यकता होगी साथ में कुछ सामान्य टेस्ट और प्राथमिक पारिवारिक इतिहास को भी जानने की जरूरत रहेगी। आपकी दिनचर्या और अन्य आदतों को भी जानने की आवश्यकता होगी इसलिए इस समस्या की ट्रीटमेंट के लिए एक बार फोन या वीडियो कॉल के जरिए कंसल्टेशन हो सके तो ज्यादा बेहतर है।
I completely understand your concern.
To diagnose your problem completely, I would need more information as well as some general tests and a primary family history. Your routine and other habits will also need to be known, so for the treatment of this problem, once consultation can be done through phone or video call, it is better.

You have survived for one week after the incident . You don't have any neurological deficit. So it can't be a serious problem.
Please get an MRI of the skull and Cervical spine done. That's the only way in which we can get 100% assurance that your Vertebral Artery is intact.

As you have no any other symptoms, vertebral artery dissection is highly unlikely, still you need to consult
