Head and trama help

83 yr old white female. fell on ice 15 yrs ago, taken to hospital - out for unknown amount of time - no issues found at that time.
10 yrs ago, car accident t-boned me - have trouble walking (ankle & heel not in place - no other issues found) except cannot get thoughts together - healthcare said it was the mediciation -

however now my vision in left eye is gone, right eye fading fast - have hard time getng thoughts together to speak - trouble with getting them out when do think clearly - pass out frequently - have seizures that put me to sleep for hours - black out and hit floors, walls, etc.  Had several MRI's done all they say is sinusitus problem.  There has to be more to these seizures and blackouts. anyone?

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
If you have a headache too then it could be benign intracranial hypertension. A spinal tap is diagnostic and curative too. An EEG should be done to look at seizures. It could also be age related dementia. Get a fundus examination of eye to test for pressure from brain side. Consult an ophthalmologist.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
