Hi I'm glad I found this. On the 15th of march I was running around like crazy trying to take care of my 3 children, husband, and a friend that recently had a hysterectomy. I was standing on a chair trying to reach something in the cabinet up high and fell backwards off the chair and landed on my back, hitting my head hard on the kitchen floor. I didn't loose consciousness, but I started having signs of a concussion. I was combative, blurry vision, seeing things, feeling very drunk. I was in the ED for a few hours and the CT scans came back clear. So anyhow I just got diagnosed with post concussion syndrome. I'm having a hard time even writing this because it is taxing to my brain. I have trouble finding the right words. Sometimes I find it nearly impossible to stay awake even after 3 cups of coffee. I have intermittent headaches/(I have imitrex for migraines), I stare at nothing, ringing in ears, I don't want anyone near me. I can't seem to start a task like laundry, dinner, cleaning(I'm now a stay at home mom) I'm suspicious, overly sensitive, god I could go on. Idk if I'm even in the right place to be sharing. I'm not me anymore and I'm terrified. Thanks for listening.
