I tried to search through the threads here on the forum for something similar to what I'm experiencing, but wasn't able to find anything...so here we go.
It's probably nothing, but something weird started happening today...I'm getting this dull, persistent, slow pulsating headache in ONE SPOT on my head. It's right around the "left frontal lobe", where I was injured. It's weird because it's nothing I've experienced before. Its not like a regular headache, it doesn't really hurt...it feels more like pressure pulsating over and over in the same spot. It's been going on for about an hour now. I'm concerned because, like I said, it's in the area my brain was injured. And it's not like a regular headache, it feels like something is poking my brain softly over and over in the same exact spot, at the same speed. What's going on in there? Tumor? Blood clot?...or could it be something good...healing? Lol...I feel a panic attack coming on.

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid, Medicare and SSI. Current symptoms: Brain fog, mild memory issues, problems with spontaneity, occasional spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in right ear and some other things that I can't explain. Life after the brain injury: 4 years after the injury, I'm engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 years, I'm the CEO of my own business, Notorious Labs, I've taught myself how to program complex games and apps which is a feat I never thought I'd accomplish and now live a semi-normal life with very mild PCS symptoms. Slowly but surely regaining my life back. |
