Concussion?
« on: March 18, 2011, 04:00:49 PM »
Typical symptoms of concussion include:

    * Headache <

    * dizziness <

    * Nausea <

    * Dazed feeling <

    * Visual symptoms <

    * Irritability :mad:

Simple concussion: In a simple concussion, the person the symptoms gradually resolve, and the patient returns to normal function in 7 - 10 days.

What is the treatment for concussion?

Time is the ally in concussion treatment since most symptoms resolve within a week to 10 days. Treatment is directed at symptom control for headaches, nausea, dizziness, and insomnia. Discussion with employers may be needed to alert them to issues of poor work performance due to difficulty with concentration and comprehension.

Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

Sounds just like PMS to me.  Didn't you just fall off a horsey named Red recently?  Or was that someone else?

Anyhow, the universal suggestion:  Go see a freakin' doctor.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I did?  You are kidding right?  Do I own a horse?  Is that what is out there yelling "Hay, feed me!"

Nope. Terminals are typically stupid. The brains are in the central server.
