Brain fog, dizziness, vision problems, head pressure, headache PLEASE HELP

What were these videos about?

The videos are about Cervicogenic vertigo.  If you have vertigo and have had every test and have no results look into this.  took me 4 1/2 years of suffering to find out it was all from my neck being misaligned.  Been doing treatment for 1 week and already my vertigo is better.   I was told it will take up to 6 months to fix, just happy I found my solution.

Sounds like a great way to find relief. I recently started New breathing techniques, press trigger points on my belly and massage my  belly. I found all of them when looking for relief of hiatal hernia. 

Would you mind sending me the links via message? I would be very interested in working on my neck as well.

Hi Jerry 

 I was reading your comment to Elise sorry but I find it interesting and some relieve my doctor told me last time I had some blockage in my nose and prescribed me allergy medicine but also told me it probably won’t help with my symptoms I also has same symptoms as Elise but mostly all my symptoms are gone I got every symptom bad thoughts also for 3 months now all I have is this drunkness feeling . 

How long were you feeling all the symptoms?

I’ve also had multiple blood test done MRI’s Ct scan EEg , EKG  all they said was I had Mano once  ago but didn’t have it anymore . Who knows but it’s good to hear someone found relieve or the problem it keeps hopes for us who are still searching !

I had mono as a teenager too fyi

 See I also heard of EBV my doctor says that’s Mano but she has never heard of anyone having it this long it’s been 3 months since I’ve been this way so she don’t think it’s the Mano anymore because she said I once had it don’t anymore she checked my blood ten days prior and it shows I don’t have it anymore . So maybe that was a coincidence or it’s what started this who knows . I’ve notice many people have had it also.

Hi jerry!!! I’m so happy for you that you found relief!!! I’ve had this for just about 2 years now constantly, it’s truly the worst thing I’ve ever gone through in my life.  

How long did you have symptoms for? I have terrible sinuses and nasal problems and swollen adenoids anyway, I used to get sinus infections once a month when I was younger. 

I used a ton of saline sprays and prescribed Flonase, is it the specific brand “ocean” that did it for you??? And did you also have derealization and messed up vision where you can’t focus and everything looks sickening fake and weird and you don’t feel right ever? 

I will try absolutely ANYTHING at this point, I’m so desperate to feel even just 50% back to myself, I would do anything 

Hey Elise 

 I wanted to ask you have you tried changing your diet when I had really bad derealization I was drinking so much water that’s all I would drink and started eating better I must say it helped me a lot it didn’t happen overnight but I feel 75% better but I’m stuck on that my vision still is weird on and off I use to feel like I was always in a dream state of mind everything didn’t feel real ugh I hated that so much I know what your going through on that it sucked !! It’s been 3 long months of hell! Now I feel more like I’m drunk like if I’m really tipsy I still have brain fog , lethargic brain also . 

Hi Yolanda!! Yea that’s how I’ve felt 24/7 for the past 2 years it’s so so scary I hate the derealization, I honestly can’t ever tell if I’m alive or if im dreaming. If I had just the derealization without the other physical symptoms is be able to handle it and move on with my life. Mine makes me so sick all the time though, I physically feel so out of it and like I’m going to fall over and can’t focus and my body feels so weird and horrible brain fog and I can’t understand what people are saying and my head feels so heavy and physically cloudy and swirling and pressurized like it’s going to blow up. My vision is just so messed up too. 

It’s just so frustrating. Yea I have been in a few different diets such as the migraine diet and Mediterranean diet but neither helped it’s so frustrating

 I know how you feel I remember feeling so out of it like I’m in a dream I literally wouldn’t even know what I would do all day and I even would forget the days it was so hard and very scary just waking up one day like this I felt completely not my self I felt I wasn’t even alive or there anymore I even went to the ER first just freaked out and scared ... so you ever have a good day at all? 

I remember also I was so numb like I had no taste buds and completely brain fogged .

I know your pregnant and I pray that you feel some what better after birth there has to be a reason for why we feel this way I believe whatever is going on is what is causing us derealization I can function sometimes I can walk around I have to I have two small children but I always feel weird like I guess a drunkness now and my vision is always so off like I’m wearing the wrong prescription but I remover when I found your post is when I had every symptom as you and that was 3 months ago .. it sucks so much I really hope you find relieve soon thanks for responding !! Also try and drink lots and lots of water .🙂 I’m sure you know that by now stay away from caffeine .

Please try the probiotic Florajen 3.

Elise,

Mine lasted about 3-4 months before I found relief (ocean brand saline).  I used it very liberal.  Two good pumps in each nostril every couple hours (pumps, not just sprays).  Did this for a couple days and found a massive improvement.  I felt like even after one day I could tell it was subsiding.  I also was very prone to sinus infections as a child.  All colds basically turned into sinus infection.  And yes, I know what you mean about the vision.  I can see, but I can't.  I had trouble actually focusing on things.  I also felt like when I would look around it took a second for my brain to catch up and process the movements.  I found that when I would stress or have anxiety over it that it would get worse.  The doctors put me on prozac and ativan, which made things much worse.  I threw those out after several months.  There are many people online that describe the exact same problem that we are having / have had.  Almost all of them come down to a sinus issue, wether or not you feel plugged up.  My opinion given my experience is that its some kind of dust / fungi / or bacteria causing the issue.  I would often have dreams that my nose was plugged, or that something was in it, but would wake up and have no problem breathing through my nose.  Early on in the problem, i did find that excersise, sleep and eating better helped the problem a bit, but didn't ever clear it up entirely.  Try the ocean saline solution, use very liberally for a couple days (you will need a couple bottles) and see if it helps.  I pray that it does.  Best wishes my friend <3

Just re-read your original post.  I too had major anxiety during this issue, where I wound up in the ER barely able to stand or breathe normally, heart beating out of my chest.  Just thought you'd like to know that other people have had the exact same problems.  It seems to be "normal" while this weird head thing is going on.  It will pass.  I promise.  Mine actually got about 50-75 percent better over time all on its own, even before I found "ocean saline spray".  But it would still come and go, i'd have decent days and bad days. But it was the spray that got me to a consistant 95% feeling better. Praying for you Elise <3  

Jerry the "ocean saline guy"

Hi Yolanda,

I'm really trying to do the math here on how long it lasted.  I think it was about 3-5 months or so before I got any random relief.  I do think that the prozac they tried me on was quite counter productive and may have prolonged it.  Getting adequate sleep seemed to help a bit.  The symptoms at there worst would keep me in bed for days at a time.  It wasn't until I "over-used" the Ocean Saline Spray that I found substantial relief.  I would only recommend using it heavily for about 3 days or so.  That's enough time to decide wether its working for you or not.  I'll also add that on lots of these forums people have confessed to some cocaine usage in the past.  Just throwing that out there, but I think that's even more evidence that it is primarily a nasal infection of some kind wether or not you've ever used it.  I read countless posts for months trying to find a cure\remedy.  That seemed to be a common reoccurence, even people that had forgotten they ever tried it before.  The good news for those users\experimenters is that it seems totally treatable and goes away.  There is a bright future, it will pass.  Hang in there

I’ve also had sinus problems my whole life and have the same symptoms. I bought the ocean spray today. Really hope it helps. 

Please let us know!!

Yes exactly! I am like a robot going through weird motions not knowing what’s happening around me and can’t remember anything I do all day!!! 

No unfortunately I don’t have good days :c there was a period where I wold have really bad days and then days that weren’t as severe, but now it’s just gotten so bad. I think a lot of the pregnancy hormones and stuff have made it a lot worse too though! I’ve never had a day where I feel completltr normal like my old self though I don’t even remember what that feels like anymore!

That’s exactky what my vision feels like all the time!!! I feel like I’m wearing the wrong prescription and everything is visually out of whack and I can’t focus or see anything properly!! 

Thank you so much Yolanda ❤️ I’m praying so much that I can be s good mom and everything will be okay with my little boy! I have so much respect for you for having little children with this going on, you are so strong! 

Hi Jerry!!! That’s exactly how I am, whenever I get sick it ALWAYS goes to my sinuses! I’m actually really sick right now and it’s gone to my sinuses again with the severe eye pressure head cold head pressure dizziness sinus symptoms. 

My mom is going to pick up some of the ocean saline for me today! Thank you SO much for all your help, I hope so so much it can help me too. I’m so happy for you that it helped you. 

Literally so many doctors I’ve seen have told me it’s just anxiety and give me medication for it. None of them listen when I explain that I’ve only had anxiety after I was sick with this for a while. 

I’m very excited to try the spray! 

Thank you so much for your kind words jerry! ?? It’s posts like this that really help me to keep going and pushing forward. It’s so reassuring to know I’m not alone with this because I feel so alone all the time (even though I feel horrible other people are going through this horrible stuff too 😢 

I will update about the ocean saline! ??

I hope it helps Jaycee!!! 

Hi Jerry, I’ve been using the ocean nasal spray for a few days. I do two pumps in the morning and two pumps at night. I do  think it’s been helping but I’m gonna try using it more frequently to see if my symptoms improve more. I find this interesting because a lot of people on the page have mentioned having sinus problems and this sickness started when I had a sinus cold. I already had a surgery scheduled to fix my nasal issues so I wonder if it will help me.

Mine also started right after I had a virus or some sinus cold and like I said I’ve had horrible sinus problems my entire life!!! 

Are you using the ocean spray vertically or horizontally? On the bottle I got it says vertical makes a “spray” and horizontal makes a “stream” but I’m having trouble using it horizontally
