What Causes Headache, Ear Ache And Memory Loss?

I have a 17 year old male that a week ago complained about ears and head hurting with a sound like a fire alarming going off in his head, he than walked out of class and showed up hour later with superficial head injury. He does not remember anything…meaning how to read, count, doesn t recognize anyone except mom and dad (doesn t know our names) can talk (speech is normal)…has had MRI,MRA, blood, urine, Echo, all clear and normal. Has been seen by neurologist, psychologist, pediatrician with no results…8 days later still has headache and no memory…what are our next steps? Has anyone heard of anything like this?

Please show him to a psychiatrist. He might in hysterical fugue state or depressed. If MRI brain is normal and he is normal neurologically then he is possibly in the above two states which would be managed by a psychiatrist.
