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?

Very possible you sustained a concussion. You don't have to hit your head to have a concussion, the force of the fall can cause your brain to "bounce around" inside your skull, and this can cause it and the memory loss symptoms you describe. There is no real medical test for a concussion, and most resolve after a few days without PCS symptoms.
