Please do NOT wait 2 weeks. Go to an emergency and insist that you been be see a neurologist with specialty in stroke and TBI. If you need to get a name, please contact me.

From what I was told I stiffened up and fell without trying to break my fall. I hit a wood dance floor with my full weight. I did not bite my tongue,or cause any damage to myself except for a large gash on my jaw bone. I was diagnosed with a level 3 concussion. My Dr thinks I had a seizure. I went through a MRI that came out normal. I was referred to a neurologist who has scheduled a EEG test in 2 weeks. I have mid short term memory loss still, and my eyesight went from near 20/20 to needing progressive bifocals. I am still dizzy, and have pressure in my head. I do not have bad headaches. Dr took away my driving privileges and has not let me go back to work. Any thoughts? I am an otherwise healthy woman. I have never had a seizure or fainted before. I am 39 years old.
