Default Mild concussion turned major
About a month and a half ago I got knocked out by a very strong, large guy. Originally I went to my doctor and he basically said that in the coming weeks I would wake up and all my symptoms will have disappeared. This felt reassuring so I basically continued my lifestyle as normally as possible. This included drinking alcohol (in excess on occasion)...

A month later everything started to feel pretty good so I went for 3 mile run to train for a race (I am not a runner). The next day I relapsed into much worse and now have even worse symptoms than I had originally. I went to a different doctor who gave me some advice. I quit drinking and took a week off to rest. Now, 2 weeks after relapse I feel no better.

I have a feeling that I turned a mild concussion into a major one, and the anxiety is killing me...
