Concussion

[Diagnosed with concussion]

Hit head at work, no LOC. Went to ER a couple hours later at insisitance of safety rep at work. CT scan shows no abnormalities. "Diagnosed" with concussion and told not to think for a couple of days.

Hold a current 2nd class medical and but do not fly commercially. What am I looking at to fly again?

Was a little foggy for awhile -- have a job that requires me to do rather complex math) and had a slight headache, but nothing that required medications (like a 2 on a 10 scale). Returned to work partial days within 48 hours.

But obtain specific guidance from an AME such as Dr. Bruce Chien versus guesses provided by us guys on the Internet
