Hi doctor,
I am a 27 year old female. I am currently taking Protonix for GERD caused by a low-functioning gallbladder that needs surgery for removal. However, three weeks ago, I had sustained a concussion. This is my second concussion. My first one came two years ago when I had a small brain hemorrhage from a car accident. I was able to avoid surgery because the bleed was found late and had mostly dissolved itself by the time it was discovered, and is completely gone now. I have two questions for you. What am I to expect with this second concussion? I am very nervous it is going to end up being a hemorrhage again or something worse because it is three weeks later, and I am still getting headaches. There is some pressure in my ears, and just waves of pain throughout part of my head ever so often. Also, my second question is regarding me needing a clearance from my neurologist to have the gallbladder surgery under general anesthesia. He claims he cannot clear me for four weeks. Is this true? When will I be able to get this surgery done safely? I mean, this is causing me a lot of pain and problems such as eating issues. I barely can eat and I know none of this is helping my physical condition or my anxiety. The anxiety has me through the roof. I get knots in my stomach that I do not know are from my gallbladder or my nerves. They cause me to almost feel faint. Please do help.

Thank you doctor,
I am just concerned it can be something more. But, I do not know what it could be. For example, I have bad pain behind my head by my neck which I feel makes my neck hurt and my ear pressure seems weird. There are times I get real hot and feel like I am going to faint. I sometimes feel like my vision is worsening. How to make these headaches go away?
