Concussion Blogging- 36 hours later

I muffed the name of one of the boys friends at his learn-to-skate session today. It’s hard not to conclude that my memory was affected in a minor way by the blow. It’s possible that I’m being overly sensitive to the situation, but I don’t normally makes these kind of mistakes with such frequency.

I still have the mild sense of disorientation. Painwise, there is a dull ache where my head and neck meet when I lift my head to look up. I’m guessing that my head shifted forward from the force of the blow. I found out it hurts to sneeze- mainly behind my eyes. I suspect coughing would be similarly uncomfortable.

I drove today for the first time since without any ill-effects. There will be a better test tomorrow when I take the lass to here dance class at the Y. I’ll take the opportunity to swing a racquet while I’m there, see if there’s any surprises for me in that regard.

From this point, I’ll only post on this topic as I notice improvements or other possibly related symptoms. More normal topics to follow shortly…
