I'll report it for now. I did a CT scan and other tests, but there were no particular problems. I was kicked out of the hospital with a "If you're feeling fine, go home!" feeling. I remember everything. I even remember how I fell at the end. So there's no need to worry. For now, I'll just say one thing... "If I see you again, I'll beat you all up!"
