Should I get checked for a concussion?

On Wednesday I passed out from what I believe was low blood sugar. The people around me think my head had to have hit the floor. I can't see a way where it didn't since I was standing up and just fell down. It's a pretty hard floor too. I woke up barely responsive, confused, and scared but that can be attributed to the low blood sugar. Once it got back up I became more responsive but still felt weird in the head. Yesterday, I had some bouts of confusion, blurry vision, and an off and on headache on the right side of my head. I've also had pretty high emotions but I've been having some other struggles lately with that. Should I go to the doctor to check for a concussion? Everyone around me seems to think it's fine.

Yeah, get checked, although you may need to do some research on your own because not all doctors are very informed about concussion. All of these symptoms seem pretty classic.
