Default Nervous about my Concussion

I suffered a concussion two weeks ago. I went down a water slide and hit my head on the concrete bottom of the pool when I exited the slide. I had a concussion or two as a kid, but I don't remember them.
My case is no where near as severe as others on this board, but I am just nervous about recovery. I can function, but my husband has noticed (and so have I) that I have had slight personality changes along with the lack of concentration abilities, vision focusing slowness, "humming" in my head, which I call "the bees", and fatigue. I am a lot more blunt and have less tolerance and the "filter" that usually stops people from saying what they really think isn't quite there. When I get stressed or sometimes just because, the point of impact on the back of head (outside isn't sore) seems to constrict and is painful. The pain wraps around my head sort of in waves.
I had an MRI and it fine.
If there is not improvement or things get worse I will be going to a concussion clinic in the next few weeks.
I guess just talking about it will help me not feel so crazy. Anyway, thanks for listening.
