Guest guest Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 Hey friends I need your advice. I am having an awful number of dizzy spells. Its been going on for a few months. My labs are normal. I am eating enough to actually have put on a few pounds. I am not working out too hard. I am getting heaps of sleep. My BP is normal. I am not too stressed or working long hours. I drink heaps of water (maybe 2-3 litres a day). I think my PCP thinks I am a hypercondriac...but sometimes I fear I will actually pass out in public. I even get tingles in my lips when I get dizzy. Any ideas what might cause this and/or (even more inmportantly) how I can cure it? Appreciate your ideas... Kristy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 What I would do is get a copy of your labs to Dr. K/Dee, (email..fax) tell them all about what your experiencing and your recent surgery/broken arm. You need to send Dr. K a copy of your labs anyway. The best advice you'll get will come straight from them. Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 Kristy, This is probably a long shot but --- I have a friend who was experiencing unexplained dizziness. They ran batteries of tests on her - thinking MS, Lupus and more. On a whim her doctor asked her if she drank diet drinks - she did - quite a bit - he told her to give up everything with aspartme/nutra sweet - she did - and the dizziness was gone in days and has never returned. hugs, cindy lee > Hey friends > > I need your advice.

Otherwise, lol, I hate the complaint " dizziness " because it can be almost anything in the world and I have to play hunt and never find out what it is most of the time...grrr!

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 sorry bout that! I was hoping it was that because it would be relatively easy to solve. I am going through my 3rd med withdrawal now, so I'm dizzy with you!
