post-concussion syndrome
Hi. Ordinarily I would be researching my essential tremor, but I suffered a concussion on April 2, with no bleed as per cat scan but pretty intense post concussion syndrome. I was being good and feeling much better when I had a car accident on May 1. I didn't hit my head but seemed so dazed that I was taken in neck brace and back board to the ER where cat scans showed no bleed and I was released.
My worry is that my headaches have come back, along with dizziness, nausea, shortness of breath, sensitivity to light and noise and extreme fatigue. My neurologist can't see me for another 2 weeks but I don't know if I just reaggravated the first concussion ( I was out cold for 30 seconds from that one) or if something worse is going on. Can't drive. Can only spend short periods reading or on computer, and am very off balance. Should I see someone sooner? Wait for my regular neurologist? Any advice would be much appreciated! !
