Head trauma: If you fainted in the shower - you definitely hit your head especially if you woke up and were on the floor of the shower. THis is treated as a potential head injury. You should go to the hospital or your PMD and have yourself checked out.

Fainting: A loss of consciousness, dizziness, and headache are symptoms that warrant a call to 911 to go directly to the emergency room ASAP. It is very important that you do not drive yourself.
