A head injury with ongoing dizziness and swelling is not something you should wait out at home, especially with your thyroid condition in the picture.
Next Steps
Please get yourself evaluated in person today, ideally in an emergency department or with a neurosurgeon, since a fall like this needs direct examination.
Health Tips
If you keep feeling this drowsy, treat it as a warning sign and do not ignore it.
