Hi All

I've been going through anxiety trying to find out what is wrong with me. I have several bouts of severe dizziness in the past 10 years. They all start the same with a severe onset of dizziness out of nowhere ( No Spinning) just dizziness. it lasts about a minute and slowly disapates. I've been to the emergency to see what happened and they find nothing. The last visit the Neurologist said i had a small stoke TIA but all tests were negative. Anyone out there gone through this? I have Afib too so I'm wondering if it is irregular heartbeats or panic attacks?

Thank you!

David

    it could be from the a fib or panic attacks. only a doctor that knows your history would be able to give an educated guess as to which one would most likely caused the dizziness.

    Are you taking any type of a blood thinner medication for the a fib?

    for now, relax your mind as much as possible. Listen to some soothing meditations for anxiety on YouTube. Do that every day. or as much as you can and try not to overthink things. That can create anxiety along with dizziness.

    I have had bouts of dizziness many times over the years. always due to high levels of anxiety. I practice my deep breathing for anxiety, and listen to meditations frequently. The more you can relax your mind the better you will feel all around.

    let your doctor know if the dizziness continues on. and review your medication‘s with your doctor.

    I hope you feel better soon. You can always private message me if you like
