hi, i’m 21 years old and have been having some issues with my neck and head area for a few months or so.

at first, it was alot of pressure in my neck accompanied by dizziness. i went and seen a chiropractor & it helped a little. i’ve been seeing him every week.

i had an mri and ct scan done of my neck & head, & only answers i’ve been given are that i have a straight neck with no curve, & two slightly bulging discs in my spine. 

the part that freaks me out, is that sometimes i feel like i seize up or something for just a couple seconds than it stops. i can’t even explain the feeling. my head gets super shaky & so does my neck. i’m wondering if maybe it’s a pinched nerve. i really don’t get it. i also have spots in my vision most of the day but no doctors can figure out why. i’ve noticed my symptoms get worse later at night than in the morning. i also have ringing in my ears sometimes, & a buzzing/full feeling in my ears alot of the time. 

i don’t know what to do. i’ve been to so many doctors, & they haven’t done anything. i’ve seen a neurosurgeon, but he wasn’t any help at all. my mri of my head came up clear. wouldn’t that show seizure activity? so if it’s not a seizure, WHAT IS IT!? 😔 i’m so over feeling like this. i now have vertigo as well. 

my neck and head start to feel heavy alot of the time. almost like my neck isn’t wanting to hold my head anymore. sounds dumb, but it’s true. i have two kids, this makes it so hard to do anything with them. 😔 everytime i bend down or get up, i get super light headed. i’ve also had alot of brain fog. rapid eye movement as well.

my neck area is tingling as i type this.

could this be MS, lyme disease? 😓😓😓

    Wow, so many symptoms are like mine. I know yr not Goin to blev this, but since iv been using flonase generic, it gas helped me tremendously with dizziness, head sounds an buzzing. I do still have the tinnitis, but it's doable. But since on the nasal spray, the fogginess as well as dizziness, has left. I have clogged up ears which is ETD, but tht is better. I so feel what all you are going thru..please just try for a week and see if it helps. Please keep me updated..Sure hope it helps. ..

      thank you ?? i definitely will. praying they find the answers soon. a part of me thinks it’s because i have two bulging discs in my spine. but the neurosurgeon said they weren’t bad enough for surgery or anything. i’m just sick of all these symptoms. 😓
