As Sara indicated you should see a Neurologist ASAP.  Six concussions could be one to many.  There is currently a serious issue with respect to football players and concussions in the NFL and their symptoms closely mirror what you indicate.  Head bounces from a soccer ball can cause skull bone issues especially for younger individuals.  

For all of you parents reading this post, make sure your children avoid similar manuvers with a soccer ball.  The weight of the ball multiplied by the speed of the hit on the head can cause serious injuries for children.

Hi Katie,
You gave more information in this later posting.  It sounds like you have had these terrible symptoms since 2009.  What has your doctor told you--just to take Toprol?  If that is the case, you need to see another doctor, hopefully a neurologist.  You should not be suffering like you are.
