    Steph,

    Do what is good for you ask advice (not that I am much help).

    Since I had my SAH/Brain Bleed I am wary of head pains, but that is just me.  Go and see if there is anything Doc can suggest and get it sorted.

    Good Luck xx I wont put try not to worry as you will xx natural xx

    Hi Stephx,

    I'm like Winnie, I'm no doctor either, but a lot of your symptoms are very much related to one another - that probably sounds stupid to you, From past experience some of the symptoms can be grouped together and caused by another, which you have also stated.

    I'll try and break them down as much as I can:

    Tinnitus : This can cause many other effects, because it is due to your hearing. Some of the symptoms can be dizziness, nauseous, loss of balance, ear ache, facial muscles twitching, etc.

    Symptoms: In most cases it is age-related, but there are other ways in which can cause Tinnitus, excessive ear-wax depending on where the build up is, this can cause you to hear loud noises due to excessive ear-wax hitting the ear drum.

    You mentioned you suffer from headaches, these can be caused by Tinnitus and can be very painful which cases Migraines.

    You can make your own assumptions by typing in to Google the following keywords:

    migraine tinnitus

    migraine tinnitus vertigo

    tinnitus and vertigo together

    tinnitus and dizziness

    occipital nerve tinnitus

    can occipital neuralgia cause tinnitus

    occipital neuralgia symptoms causes

    I have mentioned occipital neuralgia symptoms because it can cause strong pain that feels like a sharp, jabbing, electric shock in the back of the head and neck.

    You mentioned black and white stars, I would assume you get this symptom when in very bright room environments, again the factor of this is in fact a form of migraine.

    Basically, all your symptoms are all related to one another - I cannot understand why your Doctor has not picked up on these symptoms. I should hardly have thought they are to do with you being heavily pregnant. So, that can be ruled out of all the symptoms.

    I have given you all the things you can look up yourself, which will just show you everything is related, eventhough it does not look like it from your own perspective.

    I hope that helps you.

    Regards,

    Les.

      If you make an appointment to see your doctor take that list with you (in bold text). He or she, should start reading the BMJ (British Medical Journal) at least!

      If not, change your doctor! ASAP... rolleyes
