Well, I passed out from the heat / flipping my head back washing the shampoo out of my hair (I guess) and then smacked my head on the tub and then the bathroom floor. Good times.

I remember when you told us you passed out in the shower. Might have been from exhaustion hmmm??

I've never had a concussion I don't think. I've been hit in the heads plenty of times hard but I always feel like how I always feel

I've had about a dozen of them. I was one hell of a tough athlete.

No, when I told my doctor, he checked my blood pressure and I guess it was like extremely low. Then he started telling me how people pass out on the toilet from straining and bang their heads, and told me to eat more salt or something stupid.

4 of your concussions still play football? That's pretty impressive.

Oh, that sounds maybe. Most people with low blood pressure I know always are cold and sit like on heaters and in furnaces all day

3 from playing football.



that's a lot


do you suffer symptoms still?



They were spread out over a 5 or 6 year period and the second was fairly mild. The only thing I could possibly attribute to them now is that sometimes I get a doozy of a headache, although this is infrequent. No proof they are related though.

Yes, it was pretty sweet. My vision was all blurry for a while. A+, would recommend to others.
