hi my name is cory i was diagnosed with a cuncussion in oct since them i have had a ct scan and waiting until apr for a mri the doc said something about a disolved membrane but i did not get any details i too have had fainting spells the most recent i was walking home from a buddies place everything went black i couldnt control it and i landed in the prone position i think i was there for more than an hour before i came to. i had bruses on my knee elbow and head all on the left side assuming i fell toward the left. i was extremly cold when i woke up and there was noone around. 4 hours later while on my labtop at the mall i blacked out i was out for about 1/2 and hour security kicked me out apparently i was mumbling to them while i was out cold. they assumed i was drunk. im really scared and not sure what to do until mri.

Hello,
You urgently need to see neurologist for this and doctor might speed up getting your MRI done.If its not possible to see neurologist, than consider a ER visit.
Possibly you are experiencing syncopal attacks.There are many underlying causes which can cause this.Do have somebody to watch on you till you see doctor, because patients like you are prone to accidents and mishaps.
Regards.
