For the last couple of weeks, I have been feeling so dizzy, fatigue, feeling of unreality, pressure behind my eyes which have been sensative to light, my ears sensative to sound, neck aches, etc. which is causing anxiety and panic attacks when I go out. I underwent blood tests and a brain MRI which both turnned out normal and just finished an antibiotic for a sinus infection. My doctor put me on Trazadone but my symptoms are just getting worse. Please advise! :)

Yes, I can totally relate to what you are going through. I have been to several doctors with several times of being told it is nothing. At points I thought I had some terminal illness. But, in all honesty which I am sure you don't want to hear but it is Anxiety. However, sometimes certain elements can trigger anxiety, such as allergies and sinus. Or they can induce the anxiety. Your inner thought contribute, believe it or not you are fixated on this I know from experiance. The good thing is you can identify when the problem occurs. When you come across a stressful situation CONCENTRATE ON YOU BREATHING...I can not express to you how much you need to do this. When you enter something stress full you tend to react by breathing at a faster pass, thus iduces and increased heartrate and dizzy spells. When I am overwhelmed with aggrevation, as stress I still get the same thing. I still have issues to deal with but the good news is I know what it is. Truely it is MIND OVER MATTER, I bet if you are anything like me you very rarely cry! Believe it or not, crying induces possitive endorphines, which people that generally have aniexty also have depression. Which in some cases people with depression don't always react with crying such as myself. I would learn some stress relief exercises and focus on breathing as a future referance. You may want to be evaluated for ( G A D) General Aniexty Disorder. This is very common and nothing to be embarrassed about. Anxiety/Depression is just as much and illness as diabetes and just as hard to control. Good luck to you and stay calm my prayers go out to you cause I know how you feel!

Are you not eating or eating very little? Do you have diabetes or have you been tested for it? If you've had blood work and an MRI...and are getting over a Sinus infection...it could be a viral infection thats going around(feeling weak, headachy behind eyes, sensitive to light, achy all over) (you could have strep throat?with your neck being sore but the anxiety attacks could be cuz you're worrying about what's wrong with you or you have alot going on in your life at the moment. Trazadone is an antidepressent and if the symptoms are getting worse* you need to go back and see your doctor*
GoodLuck*

I was just about to say the same thing. It could be vertigo. I had benign vertigo for a while, my symptoms were not as severe as yours, however. In all medical cases, always seek a second opinon, and ask to see another Doctor. Best of luck!

Sounds like systemic candidiasis. Look it up, it is serious, and doctors don't check for it! And 80% of Americans have it to some degree. The light sensitivity is a giveaway for an allergic reaction of some kind, and systemic candidiasis will cause this. Best of luck.

Some of your symptoms sound like they could be the result of dehydration. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water!

I felt the same way and I went to the doctor-- he said it was pressure in my inner ear and prescribed a nose inhaler.

Have you considered aids test? HIV weakens our antibodies, that is why simple medicines have no effect at all.
