Can't Sleep

by jdw1968, Mar 05, 2009 11:07AM
Last month I hit the top of my head and was diagnosed with post concussion syndrome. I feel pressure and inflamation (inflammation) all over my head and face with some numbness and tingling. At night when trying to sleep, my hands, and feet start to tingle, then burn. Just before I doze off it feels like a jolt of electric shock keeps me awake. Could this be more than post concussion syndrome?

This does not sound like a sleep problem so you will need to ask you doctors about these symptoms and whether they are more than just post concussion syndrome.
