You may wait until you have all of your medical results in before you make your final decision though.
I probably wouldn't press charges. Since you don't remember exactly what happened and don't describe exactly what the witnesses saw, a conviction may be hard to get. I would not continue to see this person, but pressing charges would also affect your relationships with everyone in the group. Not all the people are going to "take your side."

On the other hand, if your medical bills are significant, I would contact an attorney about a civil suit unless he immediately pays your current medical expenses. I know that I am a skeptic, but right now he is offering to pay for your medical expenses out of guilt or remorse, but when some time passes and he sees the cost of your medical care, I doubt that you will see any money from him.
