I read good stories and bad on here, which at least lets me know I am not alone trying to deal with this. I got tangled with the cat at the top of the stairs and fell, smacking my back and head badly. I was close to a phone and called me husband to tell him to come home. He got me to the ER just in time because I collapsed during admission. MRI, CT, and X-ray were all ok but I was sluggish and sleepy (they gave me pain med cause I hurt all over) and then the docs weren't able to revive me from sleep and had to get quite aggressive. I had a mild seizure upon waking and was kept overnight at the hospital for observation. After the seizure my memory started failing me and I didn't know where I was, what my address was, or what had happened to me. I went home and ate, slept, bathed, etc... but I wasn't able to hold onto a memory of what happened during the day. I would forget who called or what I said to them or just space out during a conversation. I was referred to a neurologist last week and will have an EEG done. The doctor's diagnosis is PCS and I've been given pretty strict orders to rest, which is difficult because I've never been in a situation where I can't remember things, keep track of time, or even speak clearly. My mind words at the same speed but it doesn't always get the words to my mouth clearly. Each day is a blessing because my speech is getting better. BUT the headaches are horrid and I always have a high pitch ringing in my ears. My balance is not the best and today on a drive with my family we got out to look at some scenery and I fainted. Only a few seconds but embarrassed myself terribly. I don't know when I'll be able to work again, I don't know when I can drive again, I don't know when this will all be "OK" again. Sorry, but I'm usually the gal in charge and I don't have the answers. But reading everyone else's stories. I AM NOT ALONE. God Bless and thank you all.
