Dizziness, imbalance, now tremors.
Posted , 24 users are following.
Hi,
I've been suffering from constant dizziness, imbalance and a general sense of "floatiness" since Apr 2015.
I've had seen doctors at ENT, Neuro, Cardio, Sleep Clinic and done a bunch of tests (blood/thryoid, brain MRI, neck ultrasound, sleep apnea test, VNG, hearing, ear checks, 24-hr ECG). All inconclusive.
In Mar this year (2016), I've also started experiencing mild tingles on my face and arms and went back to my neuro. To my dissapointment, he told me that the brain MRI done previously was the best possible test there was, and he could not tell what's wrong. He then ordered me a carpel tunnel test to address the tingles, and even that was unconclusive.
About a week ago, I started experiencing a constant sense of anxiety (that feeling in your gut when you get nervous) and constant trembling hands and muscle twitches.
What do I now, should I go back to my neuro?
What if he again dismisses the problem?
This is getting stressful and very fustrating.

I have been struggling with the exact same symptoms that you are describing and I'm headed to Mayo in a couple of weeks. Have you received any resolution to your symptoms sense your last post? This issues are having a very large negative effect on my life both personally and professionally and i need to find a resolution. Any information you can provide would be appreciated.
Thanks
