Post Concussion
Guys I need your help!!! Here's my story. On July 1st of this year I hit my head. Nothing more then a little bump and a cut. Rest of the week all was well. Only Saturday night my legs got heavy, I was puking, dizzy and shaking. I was rush to the Hospital and treated for dehydration. At this time I didn't mention anything about hitting my head because I honestly forgot. As the next few days went on I feel dizzy,light headed,heavy feet, discombobulated and tired. A light bulb went off and realized that I hit my head and thought do I have a concussion? I made a doctor's appointment with my primary and he felt confident it was a slight concussion....I have an appointment with a neurologist on July 30. This would be my 4th concussion, but this one is effecting the most.
Here are my questions....
1. my symptoms..Seem to be getting better slowly...TIRED!!! dizzy,my feet do not feel heavy anymore..MAJOR ANXIETY!!!! Headaches, irritable..
do these sound like a concussion?
2. Can I feel good one day and the next day my headaches,dizziness come back? Is that normal? THIS IS MY MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION.
3. Anxiety is driving me crazy!!!!!!! Since I've only seen my primary so far how can he look at me an diagnose me with a concussion???? What's the difference between a concussion and a brain tumor?
4. Any advice on quick recovery?
Thanks guys and girls!!!!
