Question for Medical Experts (Dizziness, Disorientation..)?

Question

Over the last two years I have been experiencing growing chronic dizziness, fatique, blurry, sometimes double vision and some disorientation. It went from being a mild nuisance to making basic life (driving, reading, drawing, concentrating, etc.) very difficult. It's extremely hard to focus due to the constant feeling, and I have no energy. I also have tried excercising, I've blacked out several times using a treadmill only walking for less than fifteen minutes. Also very brief blacking out of vision when standing or moving suddenly. I've never been diagnosed with anything ever except for Raynaud's (poor circulation in extremities) I've also checked for anemia. It almost feels like when you hold you breath for too long.

Any doctors/medical types have any thoughts?

Answer 1

what are you wating for ? death !!
your symptomes are typical of cerebellar disorder , a "cerebello-pontine angle" tumor or a multiple sclerosis MS.
my friend you NEED to see a NEUROLOGIST very soon & have a BRAIN MRI. He will also explain to you the terms mentioned earlier.
By the way, the above answers are rubbish.
I am sick now so excuse me for my short answer.
Good luck.

Answer 2

Yes many, but the first thjought that comes to mind is why have you not gone to a doctor about this?
If you have RAYNAUDS then you should be under the scrutiny and care of a physician anyway. You don't stst your age but I doubt you are in the spring chicken range. Your blood pressuer is unstable, your circulation is poor, your eyesight is now affected and you are having blackouts on exertion. Don;t any of these symptoms alarm you enough to want to have investigation and treatment.?

Nobody here can help you except to advise you what you already know you should have done a long time ago, now pidck up the phone and make an appointment with a doctor before its with an undertaker

Answer 3

There all sorts of things that could cause this, so you may need to have multiple tests by a doctor to determine the cause. I am not a doctor, but your symptoms are consistent with several things I can think of: untreated diabetes, low blood pressure, hardening of arteries, pulmonary hypertension; or some other type of heart disease. Diabetes isn't a good fit, and since you have Raynaud's, then a circulatory problem seems likely since Raynaud's is sometimes secondary to another problem.

It would be a good idea to visit a doctor and have them run tests until they figure out the problem.

Answer 4

Happened to me a couple times, its low blood pressure I think. A couple times I just hit the ground and then got right back up realizing what had just happened. Start eating more and exercising and you should be fine. Also, when you wake up don't immediately stand up, sit on your bed to let the blood distribute throughout your body so that you have enough blood in your head to walk.

Answer 5

Please see the web pages for more details on Dizziness and vertigo. Seeing double images is a bad sign and so you should consult an ophthalmologist for further investigation.
