[QWERTY02]

7 weeks ago I face-planted from a standing position to the ice. I was wearing a helmet and full metal face cage. Other than my brain hurting like hell and a bloody inner lip, no other symptoms at the incident.

• 0-3rd week symptoms where all minor - head pains/aches, light sensitivity, spacey feeling, disconnected, tinnitus (rarely), "motion sickness" (see below)
  
• 4th-5th weeks I felt good. Returned to sports/ normal activity.
  
• 5th week-TODAY has been AWFUL for me.

The most debilitating symptom, that I can't efficiently describe, is I feel spacey/ spaced out/ out of body/ like I'm on medication. I feel like I've consumed 3 beers but WITHOUT the euphoria (******)...only the blah feeling remains. It's almost like motion sickness at rest...meaning just sitting at a computer and turning my head to the side makes me feel ill. Holding any of my 3 children, especially my infant, is a struggle as they wiggle, move, etc. It isn't a balance issue, I rarely feel dizzy, it's more of a "I just got off a rocky boat" type feeling, an overall ill feeling.

However, I can drive, ice skate, perform yard work, sleep like a champ, etc. I don't feel nauseous but am eating less.

I visited my DR for the third time last week and he noticed I had some inflammation/ stuffiness in my sinus area and suggested this might have re-irritated my concussion recovery/ symptoms. I have no reason to doubt him and I don't; but I just feel like it's an easy answer. 10 days into this "sinus inflammation" and I still feel ill.

Does this sound like a PCS symptom? Could the face-plant have caused inner-ear damage? Could this be a result of anxiety (no history of anxiety but this experience has been trying)?!
What type of symptom does this most sound like? Would a visit to an ENT be unreasonable?

I've been reading this forum for weeks now and have undertaken many of the recommendations for concussion recovery (thank to all who have made suggestions). I just feel like my situation is vastly different from many so I question if I even had a concussion or if this is some type of inner ear thing/ neck injury (I did face-plant without bracing myself).
