Posted on Fri, 1 Jul 2016
Question: I was in a car accident 2.5 months ago--have had various symptoms of a concussion--short term memory loss seems to be getting worse--should I be doing something to recover from this concussion?--did not have LOC that I recall--can't remember what happened just previous to accident--sensitive to noise--have trouble with language--typing writing understanding verbal communication--sometimes think the right word, say the wrong one--fatigue makes worse--headaches every day--usually never get headaches--can seem to read okay

Get investigated and upload reports

Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Head injury may sometimes present with late complications like subdural hematoma which can lead to headache, personality changes, memory deficit.
You should get a CT head done.
Please upload any previous CT if available.
Vitamin B 12 and Thyroid profile should be done.
Review with reports.
