Dizziness way too long.....
Posted , 8 users are following.
Can't believe this is happening to me &/or anyone else.. Awful & the dizzy & spacey head is part of my daily life. I have been seen by ENT doc, twice & he sent me to neurosurgeon (hve bad neck) after brain mri & Cat scan that doc said he didn't believe prob came from neck. (get plenty of headaches) My hope is in the neurologist I will see tomorrow. But who knows. I am a older person & yrs ago I had BPV but that is not what this is.....I had lunch with my friend today & truthfully was not enjoyable, I was going through the motions. I need a diagnosis. Thanks for listening. Marie

to,do with what we all have on here! If you google "U.S. Neuro Otologists" you will get loads of references, Mayo Clinic for a start. otolaryngologists o are more ENT related, and don,t go into,the vestibular system and the neurological,connection with the vestibular area, so are pretty much a waste of time unless it is your hearing, your throat or neck that is causing tthe problem.

which is easier for me to get to than Philly. Have to see what the insurance people say as it would be out of network.

I am in the US --is this a UK site? Thanks all for responding. Not sure what a Otologist is or does or have one in this city?. It helps to have people that have a clue what I am going through. Would like to hear any suggestions anyone might have....I had brain & head scans & MRI. Poor hubby just doesn't know how to help. Thanks again.

You mention Marie you are an older person - have they checked blood pressure and heart efficiency at all? I guess your GP was satisfied the dizzyness didn't come from a cardio related problem?
Good luck tomorrow.
