Thread: Brain aneurysm or another problem?

Hi, Last month I was hit on the top, left side of my head really hard by a flying electrical plug (this kid was twirling it around...don't ask why), and my head started bleeding. Luckily, it stopped bleeding after 15 minutes when I placed an ice bag on my head, and it eventually left a 1/8 in. deep scar the size of the witdth of a fingernail. Starting this month I experienced things that never happened to me before, like a panic attack without any panic at all (I just woke up from an afternoon nap with a headache and then had an attack, and no, I did not have a nightmare or stress at the time). This week I randomly caught strep throat but I also experienced symptoms that do not usually affect strep throat patients, such as sudden shooting pains and fevers on my skull (especially in the area where I was hit on the head), upper spine, and chest, even after taking tylenol and antibiotics for 4 days. I also continuously have a pulse of 100-120, and it once rose to 145, and I am only a petite 17 year old girl. My recent blood and urine tests are normal, and I'm getting an EKG soon. Can someone, hopefully a professional, tell me if I have an unruptured aneurysm, a brain infection around my cut, or something else? Thanks!

Also, after getting strep throat I also started having joint and muscle pains in my elbows, ankles, knees, arms, and legs, and my neck is a little stiff and painful, but turnable (no meningitis).
