I had fallen in the shower.. sorta whip lashed myself.. anyhow, just wanted to share that for the next two months, I had vertigo, only when I bent over or turned my head a certain way... went to the Ear Nose and Throat Dr. He did not put me on meclizine but wanted to, I refused, so he sent me to an Audiologist... I was tested in several different way.. found out that the rocks in my ears.. yes we do have them.. had gotten misplaced from my fall, I am sure and were in the wrong canal... She simply did a had me lay down and do what made me dizzy and since then I have only had one eppisode and she taught me how to do it myself... what a relief... this might not be you alls problem but just wanted to throw it out there as an alternative or something else to investigate... I feel for you all as being very dizzy is no fun and is just as diabling as many other things..
Good Luck, Betty in VA.
I have had the same problem and realize that the problems was my anexity medicine and also too much caffene.
The sort was Atrial fibrillation millions of americans have this condition and are unaware and products such as anexity meds and too much caffene can make it worst.
Hello all,
I have been suffering from light-headiness for the past six months. I was on my way to meet a friend one day and felt dizzy. This passed and the following week started feeling extremely faint (this made me feel panicky, dizzy, shaky and sweats) and had to leave work.
The dizziness abated a little for awhile (only mild attacks) Then it came back & I feel dizzy sometimes very extreme every day. Also I started getting an ache in my left ear and occasionally a sharp short pain behind my left eye and forehead. (one day I suffered tunnel vision, although just once).
I went to the doctor & she looked at my ears, She said there was a lot of wax in my left ear and it was a little pink inside so could be an infection. She prescribed Amoxcillin for a week & sodium ear drops. (they will syringe my ear after the course of antibiotics).
I still feel unwell & almost finished my antibiotics so will need to get a full assessment. The other symptoms are quite mild however the light-headedness is the most disabilitating.
It is all very worrying but hang in there & pester your doctor or health clinic. Hope you all recover soon. Heath to all : )
