Unhappy Could I have gotten concussed from iPad falling short range?

I have a history of previous concussions and chronic post concussion syndrome so I tend to freak out when I drop anything on my head, even if it's something that other people would consider small. That being said, I was lying down and reading from an iPad and I must have fallen asleep or something because I was awoken by the iPad falling on my forehead/brow bone area from probably what was an upright position... Not really sure. It's a heavy iPad Pro with a case but couldn't have been falling from that high a distance. but I think it was propped up either on my leg or I was holding it on my torso and I must have moved and caused it to fall on me and bang my head. It hurt and I was startled and now it is bruised. I tend to manifest concussion symptoms from anxiety when I drop things like this so I don't think that what I'm feeling now is an accurate telltale of concussion. Like I've felt symptomatic before from anxiety.
But my question is... could this have caused any actual damage or concussion? I feel that nothing all that bad happened but my anxiety is through the roof right now and I'm probably overreacting and freaking out. I keep reenacting the moment in my head trying to think of whether or not it could do damage. Any advice?
