I'm not. Just seems to be good practice to check...

I wan't clear--I was referring to Dan's attempts to understand the role CO2 may or may not have played in the incident.
 
When I was 20 years old, I had a horse accident where I don't even think I hit my head very hard. However, nobody witnessed the accident. I didn't have a lump on the head or anything, though.
After the accident, I had 12 hours of amnesia from before the accident and 12 hours after. Just recently I saw a neurologist for migraines, which I've had since the accident. He asked me about all sorts of other symptoms and I've been having "word finding problems" for the past year or two. The neuro-Pysch specialist that I was sent to feels that this accident, along with a couple of other light head injuries that if had with helmets on ( no loss of comscious), over the years, can be enough to cause these issues. Probably not the migraines, which are most likely either hormonal or caused by my anticariolipin antibodies or a combination.
Traumatic brain injury is very, very strange and poorly understood.
 
I was thinking CO or CO2, especially as the tank belonged to the boat. Probably just another red herring... :)

How did you come to that thought? The OP was having problems PRIOR to the dive even while parking his truck!

No....there were no problems prior to the dive....the amnesia is the reason I did not know where the truck was.

Sorry my mistake. I was thinking that you were having problem prior to the dive and not post dive caused the problem. So was there any memory loss ever prior to the dive?
