Based on what I injured, landing was on my butt / wrist. My head did not hit anything, and neither my head or neck were painful at all.

I remember quite well what happened till the moment of the fall.

I have fuzzy memories of falling, and I don't remember what caused the fall.

I dont remember part of what happened for about 1-2 hrs after this episode. E.g. I remember calling for help and being loaded on the ambulance, but I do NOT remember the full ambulance trip or the fact that I moved closer to my home to call for help.

Is this memory loss an indication that I sustained some kind of concussion / TBI?

The only possible symptom I have is headaches, but I used to have headaches also before the episode when feeling stressed or strained.
Also a.t.m. I am still stuck in a bed 24 hrs a day, and "actively" using my brain for few hours a day, so this may hide some of the other symptoms.
Even with the slightest worry, you should seek medical help, its nothing to ignore.....I hope your feeling better.
