The good news is you are wondering if you had a Brain Injury.  Many people
with brain injuries don't realize how injuried they are, they're cognitive
impairment precludes it.  Usually symptoms of Brain injury may be coma,
physical or cognitive impairment.  If you have any doubts, let a
neurologist check you out, preferably one who is familar with head injury
cases.  Why do feel something may have happened?  Have your friends felt
you had a change in personality?

Oh PS, reading a great book recommended by my mother-in-law about brain
injury  it's called "Over My Head".  About a doctor who had a brain injury.
 Very Good.  My mother-in-law had a brain tumor 4 years ago and suffers
from the effects of not getting early enough intervention, so her symptoms
are very similar to people who have had Traumatic Brain injury.
