Confused Concussion Advice

Hi
About three weeks ago I smacked the back of my head really hard standing up under a cupboard! Fell to my knees and saw stars and took a while for me to realise where I was, very dazed. I carried on working but couldnt quite get it together and had the worst headache I have ever experienced. Also got a black eye. Finally went to my doctor who said it was concussion. I tried to return to work the next week but couldnt cope. The headaches just got worse (very stressful job). I suffered from depression and tinnitus prior to this and I feel especially with the tinnitus its so much worse. I am still off work as my doctor is not happy for me to return to work. I am a 55 year old woman.
Yesterday three works on, I woke up with dizzyness and nausea and today the dizzyness is still there. Is this all part of this concussion.? Can you get dizzy so much later on?
I really hope someone can clarify all this for me.
Looking forward to your replies. Many thanks in advance.
