so here's my story............March 12th 2017 I woke up one day with a dizzy/fuzzy head feeling every single day until September 2017 when I became pregnant. I've recently gave birth to my daughter in May 2018. the fuzzy head went away for a whole 9 months while I was pregnant, but I was taking 75mg aspirin and I'd quit smoking the whole 9 months. while I was pregnant they told me I had notching arteries 🤔 anyway i went to the doctors numerous times last year they kept saying it's anxiety 😢 ok I may be worried but everyone would be if they was dealing with this everyday. I saw a neurologist in 2016 for one sided headaches only no diziness or foggy head then and he did a mri scan and it was clear. doctor has given me fluoxetine I was on those for 5 months with no relief I've been on propanolol I've been on vertigo tablets no relief. I've been on naproxen no relief. well after 9 months of being free from this dizzy foggy head bam it's back again everyday 😢 I just can't cope it's deliberating. this time my gp is sending me to an ent. I've also seen a cardiologist I've had a ecg..24 hour heart monitor and a tilt table test all come back fine.

anyone have any clue what this could be or anyone going through the same thing?

I was thinking it could be my arteries? I've started smoking again after pregnancy and I stopped the 75mg aspirin as soon as she was born in May 2018.

I cry all the time because of my symptoms and I can't get passed my doctor sometimes because they keep saying it's anxiety but if it was wouldn't I of had these symptoms through my pregnancy also more after losing my boy at 27 week's gestation in 2012?

sorry for the long post I just need to tell someone x

    thank you for your reply. I drink alcohol too and when I have a couple of drinks this fuzzy head feeling isn't there no more but then I get a headache instead 🤔 I've been back to the doctors she's still trying to say it's anxiety and now she's put me on candesrarten. I'm so fed up. I do keep feeling like I'm going to drop off my feet. also very shaky and feel sick. and my head is just blown I'm so fuzzy headed everyday it's unreal. I'm having no break whatsoever only when I'm sleeping. no quality of life.

      You know what you need to find a new doctor? Is that possible....you need to write everything down and show them, can you suggest that you might have vestibular issues possibly Vestibular neuritis or mav? and not just anxiety? I find with all of my doctors visits the only ones that actually ended up being beneficial were the ones that I was educating the doctor.
