I have a concusion sp?

**FranKieC** · 08-03-2006, 07:36 PM

And I have no idea how I got it?

Let me first start by saying I am not that much into drinking but it was my best friends wedding this weekend and I was a mess. Well to make a long story short I woke up monday morn with a big ass bump on the back of my head that hurt like hell. I have headaches all week, have been sensitive to light, and haven't really slept much.

So tonight I decided to go to ER and get a Cat Scan..While all of the DR's are laughing at me because I tell them I have no idea how this happened they broke the news that I have a concusion lol

How did this happen? I really can't remember hitting my head.

Sounds like someone needs to control their drinking!

Yikes.. You must have been severely intoxicated!!!! no way it would just appear, although there are "softer" spots on your head where the protective layers are thinner, perhaps you hit it just right.. I have had five concussions now

.. TAKE IT EASY until you feel better!!

How long does this take to heal or subside whatever? When can I train again>? The Dr said I can do cardio but not train for a few days.

Well that obviously means you have a low tolerance to drinking. I would just take it easy and worry about getting better before you hit the gym so you dont cause anymore damage.

Yea bro I'm a lightweight I'll admit it...Drinking really doesn't do much for me so I don't do it that often. Thanks for the advice though.

**D3m3nt3d** · 08-03-2006, 08:13 PM

For someone with a low alcohol tolerance, 6 drinks and some shots would plaster them.

I dont do much liquor, but beer, even though I have cut down alot - I could drink 6 beers with my breakfast

I honestly, from experience, would give it two weeks AT LEAST bud... no sense in rushing it, its a swelling of the brain, not something to take lightly!!!

LOL yea I feel confused..The funny shit is there was this chick in the ER last night (Mad hot) and we were chit chatting about this and that and she left to go get her arm xrayed. So I really didn't get to see her before I left but to no avail there was a message on my answering machine today and she wants to chill "At her place" tonight.
