| Hello, I would like to get some information from you, if you can help me. My mother recently started feeling severe dizziness and nausea. She thinks that she just needs a lot of rest. True, she does work all day, 6 days a week, but I am afraid that her problems are far from tiredness. She also complains of neck pain from time to time. My friend, who's studying medical college, says it could be artery compression. What should I do? |

| Get her to doctor ad soon as possible. Symptoms you described could refer to artery compression, in her case vertebral artery compression. Though it is a rare condition, it seems that your mother has it. But first she must see a doctor, who will most probably send her to pass a series of tests, including PDI (Power Doppler Imaging) of vertebral artery. |
