My downfall is my dizziness / lightheadedness

I'm 22 with no life. I would love it back. 

Been on them 2 weeks. 

Can you take calms magnesium with it? As I want to try it?

    Hey thought post how been getting on.

    Touch wood dizziness hasn't been here for 4 days. However iv had very bad chest pains.hmmm never suffered from heart burn before. My dad gets it really bad! But Iv never. I don't know weather it is heard burn or what? As never suffered from it.

    I have taken rennies and it does ease. I'm still writing my food diary for my specialist. Maybe it is something I'm eating god knows. My mum said it can also be stress related. So maybe cause dizziness has eased now it's turning into chest / hear burn.

    Hope everyone's well and having good day.

    Big hugs all xx

      Glad you're feeling a bit better just need to find out whats causing the dizziness. Its so frustrating waiting on results, ive spent 8wks or so waiting on result after result from various tests (testing partly for big c- scary). Thankfully not that but the worry was worse than I realised.

      Hope you get to see specialist soon n they find out whats going on for you. Chin up honey, hope you keep improving :-)

      Big hugs!

    Hi guys hope your all well.

    Just an update

    Went to see my ENT specialist

    My MRI results came out clear which is good news but still no idea what it is.

    So I went in with my food diary and he said to cut out ( diary products, sweets & takeaways ) for 1 month see how I get on and still keep a diary of what I'm doing ect & eating. If this doesn't work he said were gonna have to talk about medication.

    Have a nice day guys big hugs x

      Great your mri is clear! But I know how frustrating it is not to get an answer. Im dairy free and gluten freen (mostly, not allergic but better if I dont have). So if you need any ideas just let me know! No sweets is a bummer tho :-) try nakd choc crunch or bakewell bars, ok so they're not sweets but not a bad alternative :-)

      Take care flower xx

      Hi michelle

      Good to hear the dizziness has got a bit better, hopefully they'll find a cause soon! Hope you're getting more support now?

      Yes keep busy distracting yourself ia the best help. Im still feeling great, wake up silly oclock (m usually up 430-5) but try to get up now and do something useful rather than toss n turn and worry about it. Managed to organise a few trips away to keep me occupied and am currently sipping tea in hotel in Prague, letting my husband have some sleep haha :-) its amazing here, in love with the place!

      Im pretty much dairy free and gluten free so if you need any tips let mw know. ....

      Take care flower

      Hello vix!

      Yes well done for doing those trips smile

      Said didn't I try get away as much as you can. Iv decided to try dating again aswell. as that part of my life is terrible since 😂🙈.

      MH support was terrible all it is they phone you and they check a list. It's very ' by the book ' not my thing so rang them said this isn't helping.

      So iv decided to go private round someone lovely then I cancelled on her 3 DAYS before and she asked me for a charge rolleyes iv never ever heard of it! So sacked that off! Terrible. So will look for counselling again. Or will go to DRs to refer me.

      Sorry I'm being dumb 😂🙈 but what is gluton?

      Big hugs xxx
