Had A Fall. Dizziness, Vomiting. Done Blood And Urine Work, Normal. Worry?

Hi, I have gone to the ER twice now. Once the morning after I saved a duckling from a storm drain but fell on rocks I couldn't see and ingested the water and throwing up multiple times after. Both times my Blood and urine came back ok. Yesterday I became extremely dizzy, vomited multiple times and collapsed at work. I went back to the ER (this was the second time). Today I started with orange diarrhea (this is day 5 now with diarrhea). My shoes are stained orange from the drain I fell in. I am still extremely nauseous and get dizzy when I walk. Should I still be worried or should I find another doctor for more than urine and blood tests?

Hi there ~

I am sorry that you had a fall and have been having dizziness and vomiting since then. I also believe that the blood and urine work were normal and it is the least of your concern. I also think that the symptoms you are having are a result of the concussion your brain suffered with the fall. If you did not have loss of consciousness, you probably do not need a CT scan to rule out bleeding inside your head. I hope you visit with a doctor however if there is any other history that you should let them know. I hope this helps.

Take care and have a lovely day!
