Hey girls..really need some help/advice.. I woke up today..this morning..and have just been dizzy/light headed.. like it hasn't really stopped..not sure.. maybe it's low blood pressure or..ear infection..kind of worried now.. cause it's not going away..feel silly cause it's just this..but never have felt dizzy/lightheaded like this..guess should talk to my mom about it..

Do you think I should go to urgent care or something for this? Starting to feel a lil worried about it.

[beachlover]

could be inner ear, could be low blood pressure (have you eaten today?) or even a sinus infection... try drinking a little OJ and see if you feel better
if your teeth ache, its sinus



{{{{hugs}}}} and hope you feel better soon!

I am so sorry, I had a migrane last night and that is how it started. Could be an inner ear infection.

Trust what your body is telling you. If you think you might need to see a doctor, you probably do.

Its probably the flu going around! Both my mom, husband, and neighbor had it at the same time. Its a mixed bacterial and viral infection that effects your inner ear. They had the worse vertigo (off balance), headahces, and complete fatigue. They said they felt like they had no energy and felt completely unlike themselves. They went to the doctor mulitple times and got antibiotics but the Doctor said it can take up to 4 weeks to get our of your system.

I pray that's not what you have and you just have a small case of vertigo.. but just thought I'd write since it sounds like the same syptoms! Keep us posted and feel better! Definitely go to the doctor just to get seen anyhow!

It sounds like something to talk to your doctor about. Dizziness can be a symptom of SO many things. It could be as simple as being dehydrated to any numberof illnesses. Have it checked out.

Definitely see a Dr. - one time I had an inner ear "virus" and was so dizzy for 4-5 weeks, but it finally went away. Hope you feel better soon!

first be honest with yourself about your fluid intake. are you hydrated? in the heat you really need to stay hydrated. could be sinus infection. have you been staying up late recently. sometimes lack of sleep several days will make you light headed. could be blood pressure- lack of water does affect that too.

Ok all..I went to the doctor. It was nothing really. I have benign positional vertigo. Somehow I got some fluid loose in my ears etc.. Somehow the fluid can form into little crystals..Somehow it causes dizziness. Anyway the doc did the Epley's manuever.. Basically lay down and move my head at 90 degree angles till the dizziness stops..so. Yeah. Glad it wasn't something worse.. So yeah vertigo is alot better diagnosis then what I was thinking it was. LOL So phew.. so relieved and feel so much better.. He gave me some meds to incase I need them.. So yay.. feel all better now!

Thanks girls

[Kimandasmo]

glad to hear it was nothing really serious...hope you feel better.

Glad you feel better now!!

[DolphinSoul]

Glad it was a simple fix, but still vertigo isn't fun! I take Antivert (Meclizine) for it and it really works, so if the meds don't help, you might try that too!

[pawprints]

I get vertigo from time to time when I don't take my antihistamine/decongestant. It is such an awful experience! I'm glad that is all is was tho and hope you feel better once the meds kick in.

[Sus79]

I´m so glad it wasn´t worse :-DAnd I´m glad you decided to go to the dr and get it checked

[Northern Brat]

[craftyfool]

Glad it was something simple to fix! That's always good news!
