Post Concussion Sleepwalking Posted: 07-01-06 15:48pm
Hi, my 17 yr old daughter was in a
accident 4 days ago, she hit the
windshield and was unconscious for a short
time, she seemed ok other than a headache
but I took her to the er, they did a ct
and said she had a concussion and released
her. Since then she has gotten up and
gone downstairs during the night and used
the home phone and has made a call to her
grandma and 2 and 4 in the morning, her
grandma said she sounded really strange
like a whole other person and she left a
message the second time. (she didn't
take one thing not even a aspirin and she
doesn't drink or anything else) then this
morning my husband was checking message on
his cell and my daughter had done the same
thing to him and left a message that she
wanted to know where her bike was so that
she could go for a ride, that was 3 am.
My daughter does not have any memory of
these calls. She never even uses the
home phone only her cell, so that is weird
too. Should I be worried, my brother who
is a physical therapist said she could
have a closed head injury. Other than
these phone issues she appears perfectly
fine, no nausea, vomiting, fever etc like
they told me to watch for. She is a
great student, kid etc. We are afraid
she might take her car in the night
somewhere so we are hiding her keys at
night until these issues go away. Any
help would be appreicated. Cathy
