@Kimmio, what i remember from my boys (and myself), is that sleep is ok, as long as there were no serious symptoms.
Personally, if you are unsure, I would call the health service (we have a 1800 in ontario.)
Here is information from online, though, take online medical information with a grain of salt;
Medical myth busters concussions.

you are able to type clearly and your posts are not garbled....seems that you would benefit from sleep.
 
Why don’t you call the hospital or a tele health number. They can talk to you about symptoms. I know it five am for you so perhaps you have dosed off

so sorry you had a bad head bang. For most it will be a bad headache, a sore spot for a few days

but if your vision is blurry or you find any unexpected weakness you should call a taxi or an ambulance
 
I’m awake but I feel sleepy. Just normally sleepy because it’s 5 am. It’s been 2 hrs which went by crazy fast but I seem ok. Too tired to call and explain everything, and too tired to go anywhere. Which would be how I’d feel if I had to get up this early on little sleep anyway.
 
Oh Kimmio...this sounds definitely unnerving. If it were me, I'd be calling a doctor, or going to emerg. It sounds serious enough to be taken seriously by the medical professionals.
 
I think a check up this morning is a good idea. You may have a concussion and just getting some advice will help. But check your eyes Kimmio. Make sure they are looking the same and focused the same. Maybe take a selfie rather than look in the mirror
 
Hoping all proved to be well Kimmio. Reading your posts made me recall the huge numbers of people (the elderly, those with specific challenges) who live totally alone. Another online friend who lives alone fell a couple of nights ago and broke her nose and got damage from her glasses. She wears an alert device so got a visit from paramedics.
 
I'm sitting here knitting socks for a friend who bought them in the church silent auction. One of the benefits of things being curtailed is the ability of someone in one province to support a church in another. I'm loving how the yarn is working up and hope she enjoys them.
 
Woke up at 11! I’m ok. I got a good sleep. I think I’m fine.sore bump still, but that’s it. And, stiff muscles and joints , as per usual when I get up. Maybe bruised knees too. I’m glad I didn’t break a bone too. Thanks for asking! I appreciate your concern. I definitely feel like I bumped my head. its bruised, but I am otherwise ok.

I’ve had a mild concussion before. I actually had a more serious one when I was 12 Blacked out, was blinded for what I remember as a few minutes. Puked going though hospital doors. Ended up there for 3 days. The day I went home - actually to my dads that weekend - step mom went into labour and my little brother was born. I walked back through the children’s ward to get to my step moms room, and saw the same nurses who said, “What are you doing here?!” In those days I got treated great by medical staff. I have trepidation now. Another time I fell back and hit the back of my head. Neighbours had me go to the ER. They didn’t do X-rays. I have done what was suggested then. But, I didn’t manage to wake myself up periodically...so, noted...someone else ideally would’ve been able to.
