I've had a fever of 101-103 for the past 3 days. I'm starting to feel like I've been hit in the head again. I can't make any sense out of what I'm saying to people and I feel detached from the world around me.
Could this have caused another concussion?

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. |

I have long considered a high fever as equivalent to a concussion, at least it causes concussion like symptoms.
High fever is a serious strain on nerve tissue. I suggest you take it easy for a few days and get plenty of fluids to help your system clean up. How is Caleb with you so sick?
