I had a bad road bike accident about 9 weeks ago and was knocked out for a few minutes (was wearing a helmet) CT scan was normal.
Also feel a bit "triply" alot of the time and seems to get alot of vestibular symptoms especially in the morning often associated with mild nausea. I sleep a lot 11-12 hours at night and feel tired all the time often requiring a nap in the afternnon. Libido has taken a nose dive too.
Are all these things normal? I thought they would have gone by now.
Feeling a bit frustrated as am normally a pretty sporty active guy.
Kind regards
Howard

Welcome to the board. Knocks on the head recover at different speeds. Take a look at the vitamin sticky at the top of TBI page and keep getting the rest, eating well, and you should probably follow up with your doctor as he may prescribe something for the anxiety or refer you to another type of doctor. You are very early in recovery and there is no reason to think you wont recover well, it just might not be as fast as you wanted. For more help post in the TBI/PCS room.
