Maybe: I am not sure exactly what you had, but if you're walking now it went very well. You need to return to the doctors that treated you or other similar experts to reassess any new symptoms related to your brain which would include problems with balance or dizziness. Because of your special circumstances these can not be ignored. Go get seen as soon as possible and get as healthy as you can be!
