 how did it feel after that anyways? Concussed or anything?
  • + 18
 Concussed? Yeah you could say that. Week off work and after one day on the job I wasnt allowed to add up mortgage payoffs for about 3 weeks. Simple math was tough cuz this was my 6th concussion. I still can't feel my supra orbital nerve on the left side of my head, which makes hair cuts and combing my hair really awkward. I walked away, about 2 miles out, with only a broken nose and consussion. I was lucky with that Leatt on.
