What Causes Disorientation, Confusion And Dizziness Post Head Injury?
Hi. Iam disoriented and confused and a little dizzy with a good amount of a sleepy feeling,I could fall asleep if I didn t fight it off..this has been an ongoing problem since 1998 after a head injury. How can this be diagnosed and fixed ? Help me please.
Cannot say in your particular case at all. The typical context is immediately after an injury, there can be sleepiness and this tends to define what is a concussion. But even 3 months later, it wouldn't fit with a concussion. Serious head injuries should have an MRI.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
