Has anyone else had this?

Posted , 5 users are following.

I'm seeing a neurologist tomorrow, but in the meantime I'm wondering if anyone else had had the symptoms I'm feeling now. For about two weeks, I've been feeling fluid in my head. it's not sinuses, but it's on top and in the back of my head. It's this feeling of heaviness and tightness in my head. It's an absolutely torturous feeling, worst than any headache i've ever had. The only relief is when I occupy myself with something, but that's hard to do since it's ALWAYS THERE .

 In addition, I feel woozy and off balance, like if I started running I would fall. I can't think straight, and can't concentrate or focus on activities (I realize part of it is anxiety, but I feel there's more going on than that)

 I've also been experiencing some odd symptoms, like night sweats, and susceptibility to cold.

 Does this sound like anything any of you have experienced?

                                                                                                Thanks,

                                                                                                    Scott

    Hi Scott, I can tell you about my balance issues and not thinking right. When I fell the Crystals in my ear got moved and dislodged. It caused vertigo. So eyes, my brain and ears where not in acting in unison. I still get dizzy but it's improving. A vestibular therapist can check you for vertigo and she only treated me 3 times to get them correctly positioned. I had my nerve tests with the neurologist today and and found a couple pinched nerves. Ask for nerve tests and they pinpoint where the problem is
