I tried to search, but search on here isn't the greatest. Anyway, almost 2 weeks ago I wrecked really hard at the bike park and hit my head pretty good. No loss of consciousness and no memory issues. I remember everything. I did almost faint and my hearing/vision totally went away for about 10-15 seconds about 1 minute after the crash when I was trying to "walk it off".
Day after the crash my buddy convinced me to get checked out and doc was confident it was just a mild concussion. Take it easy, etc.
Haven't been on the MTB since. Rode a beach cruiser like 1 mile while visiting family in NJ this past week. Was feeling pretty good. No headaches for about a week. Not feeling too foggy, etc.
Flew home to Montana this morning and as soon as I landed I had a headache. Increase in altitude? I was almost gonna go for an easy MTB ride today, but now I better hold off. I kinda feel like I did the couple days after the accident.
I've been lucky and have only had one or two other mild concussions. Last one was at a bike race in 2017, but I got over that one alot faster.
