Question 1

Accepted Answer

Brain disorder: Three thoughts come to mind.  First is side effects of medications you may be taking.  Second would be lack of quality sleep.  Third would be direct effects on brain function either inflammation (encephalitis) or pressure (pseudo tumor).  A thorough medical evaluation would be appropriate.

Accepted Answer

?If related: If the Vertigo is indeed related to the fall, you need to see the Dr. ASAP to assess for possible post concussive symptoms... or even a very slow bleed like a subdural hematoma (SDH), although much less likely if it was 1 full month .  Best wishes.

Vertigo: Vertigo is one of many symptoms of TMJ, but there are many other more probable causes. Seek evaluation from a Dentist fluent in TMJ treatment. Don't be surprised if you are referred to an ENT or a Neurologist.

Question 7

sneezed) followed by dizziness/vertigo, pressure in my head, nausea, sweating.

Accepted Answer

It must've been BIG: A big enough sneeze will increase the pressure inside the head to the point of causing all of the symptoms you mentioned including one you didn't mention which is fainting. The mechanism for these symptoms involves massively irritating the Vagus nerve in the brainstem which controls heart rate, blood pressure, &amp; sweating. The result of this irritation is a discharge throughout the body.

Question 8

sudden onset vertigo pressure in my head headache almost collapsing weak body only last a minute or 2 then trembling n headache n nausea?

Accepted Answer

Vertigo: Vestibular issues of the inner ear, with something as minor as some congestion build up in the inner ear can wreak havoc on your balance system and cause your symptoms. It is often self-limiting and will resolve on its own, but if it persists, than see an ENT dr.  Best wishes.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Probably concussed: While you mention the obvious symptoms of concussion, depending on injury site or the site opposite the injury, other post-concussive symptoms may be present.  Seeing a doctor is recommended here to track the symptoms and perhaps start with vestibular therapies.
