Hi Thera,

Welcome to the Forum.

From what you've described (a blow to the head you couldn't remember and the ensuing symptoms) it certainly sounds like you've sustained a TBI.

You should see your doctor. After, perhaps, determining that you don't have any fractures/bleeds, he/she will most likely just tell you to rest and monitor your condition. Rest (physical and metal) really is CRITICAL to the quality of your recovery.

At this stage, try not to panic. You are close enough to your injury date that still experiencing symptoms is not indicative of profound and/or long term disability. Every concussion is unique. Learn what to look for and be attentive.
