Definitely see a doctor. Bleeding on the brain can cause the symptoms you describe and can lead to a stroke. Bleeding behind the retina or along the optic nerve can affect your vision. This is nothing to fool around with.

Check out www.hufa.org - the symptoms link, and see how many symptoms of low blood sugar match with yours. If you have a few, you may want to self test for low blood sugar.
While you are most likely recovering from the effects of a brain concussion, it is a wacky theory of mine that concussions can result in a blood sugar imbalance - depending on which area of the brain was concussed. Did you land on the left side, by chance?

I can't imagine parents telling their child to stop exagerating unless of course the child had a habit of doing so?
you probably had a mild concussion and the symptoms will pass with time, but just in case, you should mention it to your school nurse.

Well it definitely sounds like something is wrong. You should get checked out. The odds of something happening like that are not high, it can happen. You could have something wrong with your brain, or you could have done something to your neck or spine even. Anything could have happened and it is better safe than sorry. I would tell your parents if I were you and insist on them takng you to the doctor. What if something happens to you on the playing field... YOU could die. I hope you get it checked out!

Hello...Worried,
Yes, you should be worried, and you need to tell your parents to listen to you, for they should be worried as well. Make them listen now! Did you see a team doctor when it happened? What did your coach say? Get them to back you up if you need help in asking your parents to take you to a doctor. I'm worried for you too Take care. Love yourself and Love God
Have a nice day.
Sincerely, J . (:

If you're still getting them, go see a neurologist, via a doctor.

you may have suffered a concussion and now have post-concussion syndrome, it can't hurt to check with your Dr.
