Had a crappy day today.
Hi guys. I haven't been around much lately, been feeling decently the last few weeks. But I had a bad brain day today. About 3/4 of the way through my work day I developed a stiff neck and headache. Then my mom stopped by and was giving me some advice about something I wanted to write down and had to delete and retype it (I was doing it in my phone) about 6 of 7 times become it wasn't making sense. Then I had a customer pay me with a $20 that I was 100% sure was a $5 and he and I argued back and forth several times about if I owed him further change until I checked the drawer and found my mistake. Gun to my head I would have told you that was a $5. Then I screwed up an easy repair that I can normally do in my sleep.
One step forward two steps back.

What Happened: 3/6/14 I was leaning in to pick my phone off the floor of my car and hit my head on the door frame. No immediate problems but I woke up the following day with blurred vision, nausea, fogginess and memory issues. Headaches came the next day along with speech problems. CT scan was clear. Took a few weeks off work. Went back for half days for two weeks.
Then: 4/14/14 While still recovering from the first concussion I hit my head on the edge of my desk. Immediate headache, nausea and blurred vision. Doctor referred me to a neurologist who prescribed physical therapy for my neck, as I get incredibly stiff/sore necks daily which helps to bring on the headaches. Doctor also referred me to a counselor, who is helping me to cope with the anxiety and panic that has come up in my post concussion world. I deal with severe sensory problems and the frequent bout of aphasia.
And Then : 10/6/14 I was cleaning something (ok cat puke) up from underneath my new glass table when I stood up too fast right into it and voila, trauma #3. I was out of work for a month and a half this time. Noise problems, aphasia, etc.
