Syncope/?Concussion: I agree with dr. Killian. Probably had a concussion, but if she lost consciousness, causing her to fall and hit her head (a syncopal event), then she would need a work up as to what caused her to lose consciousness. Either way, since now stable, this can be all worked up as an out patient by the family dr. Best wishes.
