Head injury ten weeks later

Thanks everyone for your helpful comments.

In January 2019 I fainted at the National Gallery and hit my head heavily on the wooden floor. Son collected me from the sickbay and took me back to his place where I stayed overnight. My head hurt for weeks and I saw my GP. She tested my reactions etc., and gave me painkillers. It was a strange time as I was diagnosed with high blood pressure, which had never occurred before. It was a strange headache as it was painful to sleep on the side of my head I’d bashed on the floor! Anyway, the pain went over those weeks and I was fine. No one suggested having a scan of my head, I suppose because my reactions were ok.

Can be long time then Gagajo.thanks.

I went back last week. He thinks there's a haematoma and it will disperse. I asked for a referral to a specialist to get some advice. He said there's a long waiting list and that it just takes time to recover. He didn't suggest seeing someone privately. I would have liked more information on recovery process. Which is why I thought I would ask for other people's experience.
I don't want to overreact if this is normal. Just on top of M.E. I'm finding it difficult.
I can't read or do screens for long. This is a big effort.
Everyone was out enjoying the sunshine today. My friends met for lunch and I just wonder when I will be able to do something. Sorry for the moan. I know some folk on GN have been coping with much more for a long time.

I have a friend who had a head injury a few years ago. It took her about 2 years to get 100% back to normal.

Ditto - back to your GP as soon as you can.

It will get better in time. Don’t worry, but if you are worried, give your GP a call …

It is quite possibly concussion. It can last for weeks. I would see your GP as nanawind says. There may be advice they can give.

Please go back to the GP at least. Just to get checked out.
