My weight doesn't help matters being mid 17stone and when I have taken a tumble in the bungalow with my little dog getting under my feet I have fractured bones and given myself a
concussion
, crashing into the washing machine.

Aggression
My husband had a AVM rupture about 9 years ago and in July two years ago he was in a motorcycle accident that caused a severe
concussion
. Since the accident he has suffered with a lot of things but aggression is his biggest. What have you done in situations of anger?

Hit my head and on blood thinners
I don’t have any symptoms of
concussion
but am on blood thinners duel platelet therapy and don’t know if that means I need to get a ct scan of my head? Can anyone shed any light on this or has any of you hit your heads before and been ok?

hit head
Hi, i’m not sure if this is a silly question but, i hit my head on the table and there’s a little bruise and it hurts, have a little headache, other than that i feel fine but what exactly is the difference between hitting your head and having a
concussion
, is every head injury considered a
concussion

Wow, I didn't know I felt that way, now what?
Turns out I got a major
concussion
and brain bleed, sucked, but after a few weeks later I was feeling ok so I just left it, no more doctors, I was fine... Turns out, I wasn't... When I hit the ground, apparently whatever was keeping my thoughts in check just vanished.

37 YEARS SINCE MY TBI.
It's not as if my TBI was innocuous, 2 days in A&E after a fall with suspected
concussion
before I deteriorated then underwent a craniotomy for an Extradural Haematoma.

FND after concussion
Thinks it's post
concussion
syndrome with FMS and maybe some FND. But everything I am reading here makes me think I should be having severe trouble walking and seizures. Oh my! I hope it doesn't progress to that?! Help!

Nerve pain in scalp
Hi, I had a fall and hit my head 18 months ago and was diagnosed with post
concussion
syndrome. I had nerve sensitivity at the site of the injury, top left of my head, for a while but thought it was finally settled.

Besides the Depression and ADHD, I have been dealing with vestibular migraine (dizziness, severe nausea, vertigo) for over a year - the drs. believe it is related to a
concussion
I had 8 years ago. I also have chronic pain from several horse and cow wrecks over the years.

Useless Endocrinologists
I then spent several days in hospital with 8 stitches in my head and bad
concussion
. I was ill for days afterwards, semi concious and delirious until the chickenpox rash emerged. The Neurologist suspected that I had at some stage had a skull fracture then and there was some damage in my brain.

Bang went my right wrist and hip and my goal floated off in a general haze of
concussion
. But here I am, only 20 years later, 🤣, picking up where I left off ( well not quite, not in my early forties anymore am I? 🤔).

What percentage of NHS doctors are any use?
The private consultant identified nerve damage caused by the point of impact on the eye socket during a collision and also the
concussion
. After the accident, for a few months, she had some spots of blood in her underwear again a few GP, a gynaecologist had no real explanation.
