Syndrome as a result of a fall head first from a ladder with fractures to the eye socket and face and a suspected subarachnoid haematoma or distended vein. The key symptoms are headaches, migraine, nausea, dizziness/vertigo, fatigue and pins and needles on head.

Sleep Apnea after concussion?
Hi All. I had an accident around 6 months ago when I was knocked unconscious after a head injury. I've since had a number of different issues e.g fatigue, headaches, vision problems, tinnitus, amongst others (ive posted on other forums about those). One of the more recent issues I've been having is serious

I had post
concussion
syndrome 5 years ago and also went to a Neuro psychologist and did a test there he says its not post
concussion
related. Ugh I'm depressed because I can't fig out what is going on. Any help would be so appreciated.

Ok Ladies it is confirmed you do get PCS worse than us
The have just confirmed the new that in sport a pitchside saliva tests can diagnose
concussion
with a 94% accuracy. However, the test cannot yet be used on women because of a lack of data.

Alternative to National Migraine Centre
I have been suffering from daily migraine since a
concussion
a year ago and am receiving very slow care from neurologists in the NHS. Pre- accident, I had much less frequent migraines, but was grateful for some excellent appointments at the National Migraine Centre.

Clogged ears after concussion?
Did anyone have plugged ears after a
concussion
? I had a
concussion
a little over 2 months ago, and since then I’ve been dealing with this uncomfortable symptom (one of them). My right ear seems blocked and my hearing seems off.

Inability to look at screens. Can’t even glance at them.
He has never had a recorded
concussion
or brain injury but he has been in car accidents in which he hit his head with the person beside him and cracked that persons skull. An EEG also ruled out seizures.

Anyone that can relate to PTSD ICU?
I awoke four days later in Rochester, MN ICU with multi organ failure, an Addison’s Crisis, double pneumonia, a cast from my fingertips to my armpit being held up by a rod, a
concussion
and I didn’t know where I was or what had happened.

I'm just at the end of my tether.
I found this to my own peril have tripped in the kitchen over my little dog and slamming into the washing machine giving myself a
concussion
and damaging the washing machine, my partner was unable to pick my bodyweight back up so it took a little time for me to right myself on my own and get into bed

Post concussion syndrome
So I’m 2 Years in from my accident with 2 small brain bleeds. Still struggle with dizziness and a pulsating head, fatigue and short term memory loss, all normal but frustrating and still unable to work. This isn’t constant but recovery is incredibly slow. I seem to struggle with reading glasses feel

White bump on retina
I had a
concussion
in December and a couple of days had a bleed. The retina doctor said it was a pvd that had caused the bleed. In my latest check up believe it’s now resolved. The doctor told me I had a bump on my retina not to worry about - but I’ve read on here it’s likely to be Drusen.
