So i posted how i fainted exactly a week ago. I don't remember any of it nor do i remember if I hit my head (im assuming i did but i dont have headaches). Since 5 days ago i have been getting more and more confused to the point where i cant drive because im so disoriented. When i get confused enough i start to have a bad panic attack. No doctor has helped me yet i've been to 3 emergency rooms. is there any end in sight? i cant live day to day like this anymore all i can do is lay in my bed thats it. and being awake is becoming unbearable because im so incredibly confused. my ct scan came back negative. do i have some underlying neurological disorder they missed? i tried googling what disorders cause confusion and im coming up with nothing. I thought i had a concussion but no where on my head hurts and i dont have headaches. please help.

Can you go see a neurologist instead of going to the ER? A neurologist will probably be able to track your issues better than an ER - the ER is designed for life and death issues.
Do you have a Primary Care Physician? Have you talked about this with them? |

Maybe a neuro-psychiatrist can help. They can be harder to find but many neuros seem to be limited to understanding only those conditions that can be imaged.
Either way, like EsthersDoll said, the ER is not the place to find good help. You need a specialist.
