Avatar n tn 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. Please discuss all these possibilities with his neurologist. Take care!
Avatar f tn THE HEADACHES HE IS EXPERIENCING ARE PAINFULL, TRUST ME. MY INJURY HAPPENED ON 3-2-2006 AND I HAVE HAD SOME LEVEL OF PAIN, MODERATE TO SEVERE, EVERY DAY SINCE. I AM CURRENTLY ON OXYCODONE 30 MG AND A ARRAY OF OTHER MEDS TO EITHER HELP PREVENT OR KILL THE PAIN OF THESE HEADACHES. THE ER DOCTOR I HAD ON THE DAY OF THE INJURY TOLD ME I WOULD BE FINE IN A COUPLE OF DAYS. MY INJURY HAPPENED AT WORK AND IN PART, I AM FORTUNATE FOR THAT.
10506901 tn?1431350757 However due to the circumstance I highly doubt what happened caused a concussion. I had a migraine while training at a martial arts gym and when the migraine symptoms lasted for 3 weeks I was diagnosed with concussion. The reason I do not think it is a concussion was because the only thing that could have caused it was me falling forward and stopping myself with my arms and it sort of jolted my body.
Avatar n tn I was on antibiotics for a while because he thought I had an infection but that did nothing. My doc also said to take 3 advil, 3 times a day. I did that for 5 days with little to no improvements so I stopped. Im just at a loss. I am always feeling off, and its affecting my life because I am so worried that something is truly wrong with me.
Avatar f tn Again there are cases where it is considered Concussion and suffered from memory loss, executive functioning etc., MRIs/CT scans can only show gross injuries and not at ultra-microscopic level. You can get an MRI and find out if you have any of that but it won't give how many lost. Just look out for symptoms and if there is nothing noticeable you just keep moving on.
Avatar m tn I suffered from yet another concussion in Oct 2012. When I flew to a lower altitude 3 weeks later I had no problems adjusting to the change in air pressure however upon returning to 5000 ft above sea level I could not function for days after. The same thing happened when I flew again 1 month later. I completely believe that a change in air pressure from flying and even every day weather changes affects me. Sunny high pressure days were the worst.
Avatar f tn I got a concussion about 3 months ago at a cheer competition when a girl fell and elbowed me in the face. I didn’t get knocked unconscious but I blacked out for 3 or 4 seconds. Immediately after my performance I went to the athletic trainer who performed an assessment and asked what my symptoms were. Immediately I had a headache, I saw halos around lights, and I felt like I was in a dream state.
Avatar m tn Week ago i had fell on ice, causin a concussion neck and back injury,,I now have congestion in my ears with fluid along with other bad symptoms, is all this normal , espcailly the fluid in ears buildup, headache vison ringin in ears,, thank u
Avatar f tn Loss of consciousness isn’t required for a diagnosis of concussion or post concussion syndrome. Post concussion syndrome occurs within first 7 to 10 days and until 3 months. Symptoms are variable including dizziness, fatigue, irritability, anxiety, insomnia, loss of concentration and memory, light and noise sensitivity, headache varying from a tension type to cluster headaches. You need to consult a neurologist immediately.
435918 tn?1204737341 I was involved in a car accident exactly 3 weeks ago. I was hit HARD from behind, then my car ran into the vehicle in front of me. I was diagnosed with cervical strain, but followed up with my primary MD because my head hurt so bad I could not hold it up. He ordered a CT of my head which came back normal, as well as giving me a prescription of Percocet.
Avatar n tn m sorry to hear what you have been through for the past 3 years. Post concussion syndrome is indeed real. I have had patients with this condition. However, there is no specific treatment for post-concussion syndrome. Management usually is directed at individual symptoms. This is why it is recommended that you have regular follow-ups for proper management of your symptoms. Take care and best regards.
Avatar n tn She then attempted to vomit unsuccesfully many times before fading in and out of concsiousness. Is that concussion or is it more serious?? she went to hospital i dont really know her but i want to know if she is ok!
Avatar f tn Though Asperger’s by it self will not prolong concussion, the diagnosis of concussion in Asperger’s is often overlooked and some other cause or the disease itself attributed to as a cause of symptoms post injury. Hence it is important to consult a neuro-psychiatrist. Hope this helps. Take care!
Avatar m tn I took a blow to the back of my head 3 days ago, it was pretty hard but I did not lose consciousness or get dizzy. My vision has been fine also. I do have a headache now for three days. Should I be concerned?
Avatar f tn I got a concussion 7 months ago after a 85lb metal door fell on me. I was diagnosed with post concussion disorder and i have constant migranes, memory losss, sensitivity to light and sount, nausea, and dizzyness, and i just recently have begun to have auditory hallucinations. Ive been seeing a neurologist but so far nothing is working for any of my symptoms, can anybody please recommend anything?
251315 tn?1198196557 My brain hit the front of my skull and back from the force of the vehicle comming to a instant stop. I have whip blash aswell. At the hospital the doctor said i had a level 4 severe concussion, that would go away after 10-14 days. But it didn't go anywhere.
Avatar f tn About 3 days ago The trunk of an acquaintances car slammed down on my head and gashed it pretty good. I know I needed stitches but I didnt go to the doctor. It bled alot at first then slowed down and stopped completely around 8 hours later. it seems to be healing but is still slightly an openish soar. I had a headache of course for the past three days which has reduced to a dull ache. There is a loss of feeling around the area, accept the gash which is more sore.
4066053 tn?1353717145 It is more dependent of the force of injury and the level of brain involved. However yes, the base of the skull is most sensitive and a hit in this area can cause more trauma than in other areas. Also a direct impact on the top of the head can be really injurious. Healing from concussion is a very unpredictable. A small injury may take time to heal where as a bigger injury may heal faster. Take care!
Avatar m tn I'm 17. I'll say it right out, I masturbate. My problem is that 3 days ago, my neck, about level with the jawline if you take your fingers and follow the invisible line from the jawbone to the spine, from that line to the crown of my head, and all the way inward to about 3" from my eyes, becomes the biggest site of pain I've ever experienced before in my life. And the headache lasts roughly four hours. The pain is excruciating, like a concussion.
Avatar n tn As you know, a "Grade 1" concussion is the mildest category. That being said,m there is no such thing as a "harmless concussion", and in the final analysis Lacross is a meaningless activity. Missing a season is not worth a lifetime of problems. I am somewhat concerned he did not have an MRI, and insofar as school authorities are mandated to pick-up-the-bill, this non-invasive test should have been provided.
Avatar f tn I have begged him to go back to a doctor to get his concussion checked out but he refuses. Does it sound like he needs to seek medical help for the concussion considering he never received any after-care and continued to drink on the concussion? Its been about 10 months since this happened so it is likely that he could still be suffering from the after affects of the concussion? Thank you for your time.
Avatar f tn 09 am do i have a concussion?
Avatar f tn I believe i have tinnitus now, constant ringing in my ears, sometimes really really loud, sometimes can’t hear, and certain noises trigger it. My head after this was really strange. I had a big knot, and constant headache. 3 days after incident i took a nap in bed and i woke up and turned my head from my right side over to my left and it felt like i could feel ice cold water inside my head moving to my left side, where my knot was from incident, and it felt as if it was coving that area.
Avatar f tn I play softball in college and about 3 weeks ago i was hit in the head with a bat right above my left ear. My coach gave me a concussion test and my head was hurting pretty bad throughout the day. The next day it wasnt bothering me too bad so I didnt go to the doctor to see if i did have a concussion. Well ever since that weekend, i have pressure headaches on the right side of my head.
Avatar f tn I deal with optic nerve swelling and occasional headaches. About 3 weeks ago, I started having extreme pain in my eyeballs and sharp shooting pains on the left side of my head. These symptoms came on fast and lasted for two weeks, turning into having an extreme pressure feeling on the left side of my head and tingling in my arms/hands with some twitching in my face for over a week now. I had a CT scan w/ and w/o contrast which were normal.
Avatar f tn a few years back the same thing happened to me but i felt fine right after only a slight headache this was wen i was 12 im now 16 and have been okay although ive had migraines for awhile to and the heavy head but apart from that im fine however if it really does bother you see your doctors they can give u something to feel better.
