My Boxer hit her head. Why is she wobbly, vomiting, and not eating?

Question

My boxer hit her head hard on Sat & got up all wobbly & vomitted. Then on Sunday, we had decided a vet chk first thing in the morning Monday wouldnt hurt...but Sunday evening she had a pretty severe allergic reaction to something & we went to er vet who treated allergic reaction & said her exam was good. She has not had an appetite or been able to hold down food since her head injury! She jumped from our bed to the floor & didnt land right on our hardwood floors & hit head on wall. Pet's info: Dog | Boxer | Female | unspayed | 4 years and 9 months old | 65 lbs

It sounds like she may have done some damage when she hit her head. An examination could still be fairly normal though. It could be that she has a mild concussion but there are certainly more serious possibilities. I would take her back for a more focussed neuro exam and she possibly may need an MRI scan to know more.
