I tried to keep up with the other skiers I was with . . . should have said, "No thanks, I'll take a few laps on this lovely green trail instead." I fell a couple of times on Monday at Killington. Didn't break any glasses or bones, but I did whack my head, again, and exacerbated that whiplash feeling around my neck and shoulders.
I wake up really stiff. And my head hurt only a little. But here it is Wednesday afternoon, and my head is bothering me after Aleve and later, some Tylenol. I'm debating taking an Imitrex (migraine med), because sometimes these big storms (low pressure systems) prompt a migraine. In any case, I'm laying in bed and can only read for short periods of time before it just seems too hard. I guess I'll bite the bullet and take the Imitrex (annoying side effects notwithstanding).
Concussion? After I banged my head, I was only dizzy for a moment. Pupils equal and reactive. No more clumsiness than usual. They say irritability can also be a symptom, and I was pretty damned irritated, but that's because I was annoyed about being taken/agreeing to go down those trails. No trails I couldn't handle, but just trail after trail that strained my skills. I don't think I have a concussion.
