I feel the same way as you do. How old are you? I will be 75 soon and have the same worries as you do. Only thing is I was perfectly fine before I hit my head. As I said above I have no old age issues, not a one. My female family members lived into their late 80's and my aunt lived to 100. I'm still sleeping all the time. Yesterday at a neighbors backyard party I was sitting with the back of my head to the sun, it was almost 90. Now I know I have that benign tumor at the base of my head and the doctor said 'Oh it's nothing to worry about, just ignore it"....within about ten minutes I completely lost my hearing. Couldn't hear a word. Worse then when you come down on an airplane and your ears clog. Is this another issue, who knows?? My daughter called and asked if we would like to join them for July 4th and go with their friends and the grand kids to a Mets baseball game in NYC. We will be on Long Island for my granddaughters graduation. A special viewing box with its own food and fancy seats, fireworks. My husband will go. I can't. Not after yesterday, I can't ruin their fun by having something happen to me. I see a new concussion doctor Friday as a second opinion. I'll write back what he has to say...I'll probably forget, but if I do just send me a note on here....LOL....it's that damn no more memory.
