Dizziness feeling unbalanced

Posted , 8 users are following.

Hi

Does anyone suffer from feeling dizzy/unbalanced? It happened to me briefly a while ago. Two days ago it happened again but worse. I was just sitting at my computer when it happened and when I tried to stand up to get to the sofa I felt unbalanced and nearly fell over. Dr checked me over the other day and didn't seem worried.

Today whilst shopping in town I started feeling a bit odd like I was going to get dizzy but didn't. When walking it felt like I was walking on foam or something soft. I am going through the menopause and I also have had a bad back which still hurts in the lower back area, I wonder if this could cause these symptoms too.

    Had my 1st dizzy/off balance moment Boxing day 2016, it became more and more until it became 24/7 in July 2017 and has been ever since for 17 months non-stop.

    The anxiety it brings is horrific which doesn't help.

    Good Luck

    Hallo, sorry for what you are going through. I first experienced dizziness 7 years ago. Up to date it comes and goes sometimes worse than others. I have not had a solution yet. I was just diagnosed with bppv and Gerd life has been a hell but I live by faith and hope that one day it will go away. Am a man of 49yrs
