Head Injuries in childhood catching up?

A brief history:

I was probably 9 or so when I had my first concussion, I was knocked out playing football with neighbor kids, I don't remember anything except waking up and walking home. I was nauseated for at least a month after that, vomitting, dizzy..

Next bad head injury, i was 16-17 (I'm 28 now), I fell about 8 to 12 feet from my bike off a vert ramp at a skatepark without a helmet.. I smacked my head pretty good, hard enough to lose my vision for at least 20-30 seconds, I could only see a color (dark red), and my vision gradually went to normal.. I felt tired but not exhausted. The fall didn't knock me out.

in the last 4-5 years I'd say, i've dealt with nausea on a day to day basis.. fatigue.. random headaches affecting the base of my skull to dull focussed pain between my eyes.. my ears feel plugged up sometimes, and sometimes i can hear a slight rushing (like a tv on a channel with no signal) sound.. If I push myself, like running or pedalling I can feel an annoying feeling in my gums, like i need to apply pressure or bite down. My personality has changed also, the person I use to be is gone, I feel like I can't communicate like I use to, my personal relationships have suffered.

Today, If I turn my head too fast, I'm instantly dizzy and light headed.. I can hardly hold posture in my neck, I get motion sickness easily, and I barely catch any restful sleep..

I've had doctors tell me it's just anxiety, but I've had anxiety since I was a kid, and I know what it's like to get sick from anxiety, what I go through these days isn't that. When I get nauseated, I feel a gross feeling, like I'm turning green.

anybody got any suggestions.. do concussions effect brain development or later lead to something serious?
