anterograde amnesia

I went to MY doctor today for a follow up for my concussion. She examined me more fully than the ER doctor the day after I fell. Weird er doctor. She looked at my eyes with a light, she had me follow her fingers, she had me walk in a straight line (the er doctor did that too) and walk with my eyes closed too. I passed. She said that a concussion is bruising the brain. So, it takes a few weeks to get better. That makes sense. She said since I can't remember falling or starting to fall or anything at all about the fall other than opening my eyes when I was already on the ground...she said I have something called anterograde amnesia. That is when you can't remember things from like 5 mins ago or more. So, I was probably knocked unconscious for a short while is my guess. She said to keep myself hydrated which I haven't been doing that very well but I will. To stop taking my aspirin for a week. And she excused me from work another week. I talked to my boss, Julie and dropped my doctors note off to her. She has already covered all my shifts for this week which is good and she wants me to take enough time as I need to get better. She has been saying that all along though. I miss my friends at work! I'm nervous about returning back to normal and walking, walking and more walking for 6 hours a day and checking and lifting etc. Hopefully by the end of this week I feel great!
