Common Questions and Answers about Concussion blood sugar

concussion

Avatar n tn Hi! Brain injury can cause seizure even in presence of normal EEG and these respond to anticonvulsant therapy. The other possibility is that your son has non epileptic seizures. It would be worthwhile to check your son's blood sugar and serum sodium level at the time of seizure attack. Generally low sodium or blood sugar precipitates it. Another possibility is brain ischemia or low oxygen. Another component of non epileptic seizures is psychological. Post traumatic stress is a possibility.
Avatar m tn Thanks for the info,I have been checking my blood sugar a lot with my brothers extra tester and strips since this started since i was told it could due to blood sugar issues but my sugar levels have been lowest 98 and highest 114 out of aprox.50 tests.
349463 tn?1333571576 They put me in a wheel chair and took me down to the er. I had low blood pressure and blood sugar. They hydrated me and did some tests, but everything is fine. Since my leg was swollen again they checked for blood clots and the good news is they didn't find any. The diagnosis on that is nerve damage. I don't care I'm just happy it's not a blood clot. So even though I have a slight concussion I'm back at home and feeling fine now.
Avatar m tn I was involve in a very bad car accident 02/10 and have no memory of the actual wreck. the hospital deemed I have a severe concussion and then also diagnosed me with Post Concussion Syndrome. I am currently also experiencing back and neck problems as well as getting a collarbone checked out for a possible fracture. My question is does coffee effect concussion and PCS recovery. And how long does recovery generally take.
Avatar f tn Since she has these attacks about five times a week, please ask for round the clock blood sugar, and holter monitoring for 3-4 days. In all probability she has severe fall in blood pressure or blood sugar close to the attack. Also, it may be helpful to get an EEG as well. Take care! The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you.
Avatar m tn It seems unlikely that your dizziness is caused by lack of oxygen or low blood sugar or low blood flow, because your episodes have lasted for days. Do you ever have pain in the inner ear, as if there might be some infection?
651681 tn?1384872629 low blood sugar, standing up to fast, dehydration, just to name a few. If you have not had him diagnosed, literally, then see a doctor and make sure there is nothing more serious going on with him. Sometimes heart disease can get worse when a child hits puberty; I'm not saying that this is the case with your son, you just want to make sure and rule it out.
Avatar f tn My child has had a headache for months folowing a sore throat, ear ache, cold and then a head injury and mild concussion. The Doctor said it was sinusitus. Blood tests were fine except for an ASOT of >400. This was treated by antibiotics. A later CAT scan showed maxillary sinusitus but the ENT specialist said this did not explain his frontal headache. His ASOT is now >900. He is sick and tired and I am worried. Any clues?
Avatar m tn The incident that caused the concussion can often be accompanied by structural damage to brain tissue, as well as the rupture of blood vessels, which can cause a bleed. This is what Drnee refers to as underlying brain injury. The bleed may be slow and continue for several days, or even weeks. A concussion is a specific syndrome secondary to a blow to the head. Impacts to the skull that produce a concussion can certainly cause death, if not quickly addressed in an appropriate medical facility.
Avatar m tn my father was in a motorcycle accident and hit the right front side of his head and can now not taste or smell anything he can tell hot cold but not salt or sugar when will this come back?

Avatar f tn But this morning I got really lightheaded and a headache all of a sudden(which I know is normal in pregnancy) but I checked my blood pressure again to see if that was it, and it was perfect. So I checked my blood sugar and it was 79, I had just had a fruit smoothie. The medical assistant at work told me it was low, and then another told me it was slightly low. My question is does anyone know what it should be? I go to the Dr tomorrow so I will ask him, but I'm just curious.

Avatar f tn Anything with carbs is going to spike your blood sugar. If your trying to stabilize blood sugar, I would recommend eating lots of protein and vegetables. As for carbs, choose the healthy carbs or brown rice and more slow digesting carbs. That way your blood sugar won't rise as high or fast. I'm type 1 diabetic and pregnant, so u have been testing blood sugar like crazy for a good amount of my life.
Avatar n tn Is 130 high for blood sugar?
Avatar f tn Has anyone else had extreme blood sugar drops? Mine gets to where i lose vision and cant walk or almost hurl everywhere:'( i already struggle with hyperglacimia would pregnancy make it worse??
7631083 tn?1394352887 For the past week or so there has been a couple of times where I feel very weak and my hands start to shake. I know it means my blood sugar is low so I will try to hurry up and eat something. Its sometimes when I first wake up and there are times when its in the middle to late at night. I'm 36 weeks and 4 days. I should probably tell my doctor when I go in on Friday or should I be more worried about it and do something now?
Avatar n tn My blood sugar is very high. I was taking Medformin but it started to give trouble. My blood sugar is higher before i eat then it is 20 minutes after. today it was 482 before and 299 after?
233552 tn?1228319699 I went to the doc today and he gave me my results....my blood sugar is 217. I knew that this would happen again but I wanted it to wait another month or two. My doc is going to put me on a diet after this weekend. I told him that you can't put a pregnant woman on a diet and he laughed right along with me. Then he said oh yes I can. Silly doctors. Baby's heartbeat still in the 160's and get U/S next month to find out what I'm having and I can't wait.
Avatar n tn His blood sugars are NOT fine. A fasting level of 121 mg/dl is prediabetes.
Avatar m tn HI 48 year old male, 5 feet 8 inches. 164 lbs. Recently had blood test , Blood sugar came back 128m/dl. Doctor has not recommended any medicines . He suggested to exercise and control the diet. Day before the test had a pasta lunch with cola and small pasta fried fish dinner with 2 drinks(alcoholic). dinner complete at 9.00pm. Also had a antidepressant for sleep. Went the next morning for test around 8.am. Is it possible for my test to be wrong given the previous days gluttony.

Avatar f tn Hypoglycemia/ low blood sugar would be considered blood sugar levels less than about 70. Your result of 103 is normal, not hypoglycemia. It is likely that your symptoms may be from other causes. Sometimes headaches can be a sign of not drinking enough - so a glass of water and a few minutes to relax / be quiet - may help a lot. Hope this helps.
