Mid Abdominal Pain. Imbalance After Hitting Head. Hands Getting Weak. Have Memory Lapses. All Connected?
Thanks for posting your query.
It seems that the injury you had on your forehead has caused an intracranial bleed which is responsible for the intermittent muscle weakness, loss of balance, forgetfulness, etc.
Your symptoms do need a medical attention and investigations like CT scan (computed tomography) and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) are entailed.
The intermittent chest pains and difficulty in breathing may or may not be a related symptom.
I encourage you to consult your neurologist for a detailed examination and necessary investigations. Treatment will depend on the type and extent of injury.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Thanks for writing again.
Even if a week has passed since the injury, these delayed symptoms may be due to subdural hemorrhage. Symptoms of subdural hemorrhage have a slower onset than those of epidural hemorrhages because the lower pressure veins bleed more slowly than arteries. Thus, signs and symptoms may show up within 24 hours but can be delayed as much as 2 weeks.
You need to consult your physician but to avoid a heavy medical XXXXXXX you can wait till Monday. In case there are any fainting spells or unconsciousness, then an emergency medical attention is needed.
Hope my answer is helpful.
