Hello all,

Just looking for information on how exactly second impact is defined. Last night I slipped on ice and fell, breaking my fall with my arm. I feel tenderness in the neck and in the left side of my face (headache, jaw sore, etc.). I did not hit my head, thank God. Today I am tired, really tired, and foggy brained. That could be due to some of the activities I did this weekend (a restaurant, a birthday party, super bowl party) combined with the fall. Or, it may be the fall all by itself if second impact syndrome could really be defined this way. I was feeling pretty good the days leading up to the weekend. Your opinion as to whether I've had a "second impact" or just too much stimulation.

Thanks,

VB
