Default Head Injury and Epilepsye

Hi All.
I had a head injury on the 16th April 2007., i.e. a gymnastic beam fell on my head and knocked me out for a while, not sure for how long. When I came round, I was disorientated, didn`t know where I was etc.
Since the accident I have suffered post concussion syndrome and it has completely changed me from being an active martial art instructor to someone who has consistent headaches, nausea etc.

During the past 3 weeks I have had 2 blackouts, each blackout I can`t remem ber. All I can remember before the blackout is feeling giddy, nausea, and feeling as if Im somewhere else, completely vacant. On coming around from the seizure, I have noticed that I have dribbled and that I have accidentally wet myself, together with a feeling of extreme tiredness.

Is there anyone here that has experienced this; if so I would love to speak with you. I have an urgent appointment with the epileptic clinic in Wales, I have had one CT scan but all normal, I am due for another this month.
