I got into the emergency room almost as soon as the accident happened. I was unconcious for a couple of minutes, and I was spasming (I usually do when I faint, so nothing unusual there), so my teachers called for an ambulance. I had total lack of short term memory for about 4 hours, I didn't remember anything for a couple of weeks back and didn't form any new memories during that time. So they were pretty sure that it was a concussion, but they said I didn't have any indications of whiplash. They took a CT scan in the emergency room, which didn't show any sign of damage or bleeding, and so they said it was a minor concussion and that I'd be better in 2 weeks time. I got diagnosed with PCS about 2 months in, never had any other diagnosis.

I have lack of concentration, dizziness, general fatigue and I'm really sensitive to sound, light and other sensory impressions. I have about a hundred different kinds of pains in my head, no pain at all in other parts of the body. The most common pains are sharp pains (in my temples, between the eyes and in the back of my head (where I hit it)), a pressuring pain that feels like I've got a two sizes too small helmet on, a dull pain on the top of my head and another dull pain right behind my forehead. All of them are managable if I can avoid a lot of sensory impressions but get out of hand in about 5 mins if I'm in a place with a lot of people, or otherwise very loud and/or bright.
