My head hurts where I hit it (over my left eye), and I'm confused and very emotional. I'm so tired of this, so tired of being scared that something is REALLY wrong with me. Am sobbing as I type this. I don't know how much more of this I can take. Am wondering if I did something to hurt my sinus on my left side when I hit my head, as there is a lot of pressure there that worsens when I lie down, and pain behind my eye. I just feel like I have no options and nowhere to turn for help. My dr. doesn't know how to help me, and now wants me to have an EEG. I have no idea how I'm going to get through work tomorrow, and I feel so completely alone and scared. Some kind words would mean a lot to me right now.

hi it will pass you may well have effected the sinus system many people think sinus and nose but there are lot of small tubes running all over our heads from the ear to the nose and throat but even if you have pcs MOST CASES RECOVERY IS in the first six weeks or three months so do not panic, it will do no good, your doctor is doing tests GOOD it is hard to adjust to living with pain and feeling different I personally don,t want to take drugs to fix as they also alter how you feel and then you may be getting back to normal and not notice coz of the medication the work thing IF you can take time off, do so, see your doc and get a note
remember some of us here have had major head injury's so there is every possibility you will be fine . I don,t know your location but there are contact details on the sticky, for head injured people, you can phone them after the holidays, and have a chat they will put your mind at rest, because they see many people with similar symptoms all the time
so be cool, eat chocolate

your not alone
