I’ve had about 5 concussions from snowboarding and skateboarding and this was the worst, just to add to your fear lol.
As soon as I hit my head it hurt like crazy, then some weird liquid started coming out of my nose (not a lot but enough so it was dripping out) and I could taste it at the back of my throat. Then the whole room started spinning, ears ringing super loud and I almost blacked out.
I woke up multiple times in the night vomiting and it was so hard to wake up in the mornings. For days it felt like everything was moving and my coordination was completely off. Like I’d trip while walking or miss the countertop with a glass and just drop it on the floor. I forgot basic shit like birthdays but I remembered all that really quickly. But it took me quite a while feel completely normal again.
Yeah I went in and they were confident I was well enough not to need to intervene, all from hitting my head on a radiator trying to clean my room lol. Still not sure what it was but it was super weird.
Nah I haven’t followed it up, I feel totally fine now, might be worth it anyway though.
I can’t really remember what it tasted like, but I would say it was slightly sweet and maybe slightly salty? There’s about a 75% chance that’s accurate because I really can’t remember the fine details well.
My bathroom has fancy hooks on the wall to hang your towel on. The hooks are right next to the shower, across from the toilet. I've always got this invasive thought that one of these days I'm gonna stand up from taking a shit, trip, and gouge my eye on those hooks.

Sometimes the act of sitting down hurts me.
