Hi Caroline! I hope you're resting,by now,and feeling better!:)\n\nI,too,have a strong headache today,but mine is all about stress.These last ten days or so were not easy,a lot of work to do and the computer giving me all kinds of problems.But I'm taking care of myself,no worries.\n\nMy Mom uses to have headaches related to sinus and I've asked her what to do.She agrees with the persons who answered before me,especially about the heat(unless there's an inflammation.In this case,cold is better),and sends you a big hug!:) We both will keep you in our thoughts and hope you'll be better soon,soon!:)

Gaming can be very harsh on the eyes! The light from the screen causes a lot of damage to the eyes and it may end up being serious. To avoid more trouble try to limit your gaming time. I know that is hard to do, especially now that it is summer, but to save you vision, I'd calm it down a bit! Go play outside some more! I get Migraine headaches which are a lot like over exposure to iridescent light....you start seeing spots and you get really dizzy and light headed. Then a stomach ache follows along with a POUNDING headache. I lie down for awhile and drink a lot of juice and the spots usually fade away. I also take Tylenol or another form of medicine. I am not sure if this will help you or not, but it is worth a try. Good luck to you and your brother!

this happened to me, for 2 days i could not get up or i'd throw up. I felt fine the first morning jumped out of bed to make coffee and fell on my ass. It really sucked.\n\ni never went to the hospital cuz i was uninsured and rather die then debt. but im fine now. I did research this and it may of been a drop attack from an inner-ear deases called 'meniere's disease'\n\nhttp://oto.wustl.edu/men/  \n\nhope you feel better soon

Hello again there!  Sorry to hear about how you feel.  I also have CFS or abstein bar.  I'm a bit of a pro at it, the difference with me is that I am a new person after my treatment. CFS starts out as Mononucleosis (MONO) the virus which if untreated turns to CFS, so that's why my doctor treats it with Valtrex.  Depression and anxiety come with CFS which also causes joint and muscle soreness, that's where the antidepressants come in.  As far as the fybromyalgia the only thing I know for it is pain management and that is something I don't dare explain because I have no personal experience but from my mother having it I know it's not easy to treat. Listen, if your doctor disagrees with the treatment that I just described to you as far as the CFS then you need to find someone who is more open to your health solutions. I love my doctor, he's so wonderful that my trust in him is unmentionable. I know it's scary to try someone new, but you need to feel better.  Wouldn't you like to feel normal again?  Be able to get up when you wake up and go.  Not fall asleep at the wheel.  You get my point.  I'm a new person and I have a new baby.  Believe me it feels good to be awake and the weight of the world is now a lot more manageable.  By the way drinking makes it worse, a lot worse!  So if you do, you need to take a break until you're all better.  Believe me it didn't help me any, I thank GOD for today. Chat with you later   I hope this info helps u a little bit. By the way if you're having trouble with a day at a time, try an hour at a  time.  Sounds like you're under a lot of stress and that makes the CFS worse all of the time.  Help is on the way,  you'll be alright. My doctor always reassured me that I'd be o.k., he is very involved with his patients and that's why everyone loves and trusts him so much

Dear Crystal***\n\nI have very low blood pressure, anaemia  and before anyone says eat this and eat that, I have always had low blood pressure, anaemia and constantly (seasonal), have sinus attacks.. So much so I had to have x2 operations to clear the right and the left sinus passages.  etc, etc.\n\nI have always had to take iron tablets, which combat the dizzy and tired feelings.  The minute I do not take the tablets, and monthly vitamin B injections, I start the dizzy / tired feelings again.  \n\nBy the way, are you a small lady.  I am 41kg and 5ft3".  Small lady's are most likely to suffer from low blood pressure.  You must also take an extremely good vitamin tablet and caltrate plus for your bones etc.  DAILY.\n\nand,  having sinusitus (chronic) leaves you feeling "drunk", lightheaded, because of all the congestion.  Big worry is when your nose (the gooeeeeeyyyy stuff inside) cannot be "blown" out.\nYou need to get homeopathic drops to be taken daily, called Sambuccus Comp. Drops "Weleda".  I don"t know if you can get this where you are.  I use it daily.   It definately relieves your sinus, and relieves the dizzy, vertigo feeling.  If it does not you must be referred to an ear, nose and throat specialist by your doctor.\nlove peppa-anne\n**p.s.  do try vit. B and iron tab's.

u should get a CAT scan ASAP! u could have had a stroke (yes its possible to have one and not know about it), or u could have some sort of brain tumor or swelling. if u fell or had any accident lately this could cause it too.\nthere are also several bacterial brain infections which are rare but do exist and could cause this.\ni would also go to an eye doctor, though i do not think this is a problem with your eyes, it sounds a bit more serious than that.\nalso if u take birth control pills they could cause this and its also not good.\neither way, go to the hospital ASAP b/c it could be serious.\ngood luck. \nwait...how r u typing/reading if u cant see...?

You didn't say how long ago you had the flu.  CAREFUL!  My son had the "flu" 2 years ago, and he never recovered fully.  He had symptoms of chronic fatigue and had vision black-outs.\n\nWe took him to Mayo Clinic a month ago, because no Dr in our area could tell us what was wrong.\n\nWe found out that he has Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, (POTS for short)\n\nIT STARTS WITH THE FLU!!!!!  \n\nthis is a new, strange, syndrome that they are just starting to research.\n\ndo you have headaches?  stomach pain?  read the website below for more information\n\ngood luck!

I understand what you're going through as the same thing happened to me. I think it may be depression from the shock of what happened to you.\n\nI passed out on a night out with friends and since then I've been tired, unmotivated and just constantly dizzy and lethargic.\n\nI've been to them all Neurologist, etc. They found nothing and made me feel as though I was imagining what was happening to me. They told me I would snap out of it. Yeah right!!!!!!!!!!!\n\nHowever, I've been doing my own research on line and I found out about 'ST. John's Wort' a meal supplement and herbal remedy for mild to moderate depression, which has really got me mentally and physically motivated again.\n\nCheck it out on line yourself.

considering your body is trying to recuperate from being sick, it seems like the best thing you can do is rest as much as possible. being sick can take away so much more than energy from your body so no matter what you do nothing will help until your healed. rest for a while until you feel better, and trust me your body will let you know as soon as possible because it's not made to rest forever, and will need the exercise. all your symptoms of weakness and dizziness are there for a reason to tell you to slow down and relax, especially if taking medication. just make sure to eat healthy and drink lots of water to keep your internal system energized until its ready for the external to get up and move. good luck and dont rush it or you may make things worse and prolonged.

I would try a few things before going to the eye doctor IF you are in pretty good health. It might be something just out of habit or common sense thats causing your body to wake up this way. \n\n1st thing I would try for 3-4 days straight is to jump in a hot shower as soon as you wake up. Make sure you hit your face and eyes and hair with a good cleaning. I suspect various body oils from your hair and/ or skin are getting into your eyes through out the night.\n\n2nd thought: Your body is low on nutrition and/or water first thing in the morning. With dehydration and the lack of vitamins, your eyes are suffering. Some people this matters, other people dont ever need vitamins. Depends how strong your gene set is and what other not so great habits you intake like smoking or drinking. So my suggestion is when you wake up and during sleep, have some vitamin water next to your bed and drink up. Then as soon as you wake up go make yourself a healthy vitamin liquid shake and see how your eyes react. \n\n3rd: Sounds silly but do some form of stretching and mild exercise like walk up some stairs slowlllyyyy 4-6 times. See if your eyes are coming better into focus then. I suspect maybe some kind of position in which you sleep is cutting off the oxygen and/or bloodflow to your eye area. Some people sleep face down on their hands in the face, this would be an example. \n\n4th: Sleep apnea is another suspect---try BREATH RIGHTS strips for 7-10 nights on your nose. See if you wake up more refreshed and your eyes arent as blurry. You might have a breathing problem the way you sleep. 1 out of every 7 adults sleep in some harmful way that is NOT healthy for the breathing --doesnt matter if you are overweight or unhealthy.  \n\nShould be very interesting to see what combinations of this or that above helps you out. Email me and let me know how it goes ok? Good luck.

Hi MakeEver\n\nHere is a testimonial and an idea on how to heal the issue.\n\nGlaucoma Disappears: I have a friend who had had eight major surgeries. She lived in constant pain, very seldom was she able to go places and her physician had told her their was nothing more they could do. \n\nShe went on Dr. Christopher's Three Day Cleanse and Mucusless Diet. She started on herbs to cleanse the colon,the blood Cayenne, Calc tea, Yucca AR, Herbal Eyebright, etc. In a matter of about three weeks, her pain was gone. She was able to start living again. In about 3 or 4 months her arthritis left her. \n\nShe had had glaucoma for 13 years. Her glaucoma medicine was making her ill, so she went to her eye specialist. He tested her and said there is not even a trace of glaucoma left. There is virtually no cure for glaucoma, how did you do it. Her reply was thru herbs and diet. She was told whatever it is, don't stop it. He took her off her glaucoma medication, and a special pair of glasses. She now tells me her eyes have improved so much that she can now watch TV without glasses, which she never before had done. She started on this program less than a year ago. Her dark brown eyes are now turning green. She has a ways yet to go, but she is really living again. She is a composer and this past holiday season, had a Christmas Album published. \n\n\nBest of health to both of you\n\nCheers

Gave blood.  I knew if I got up that I would faint but the nurse made me move to another seat.  I made it to the seat but then I took a nap.  That's what I call it.  When I was coming back, my eyes saw light and shadows of people but everything was wayyyy blurry.  The voice in my head told me to wake up because I knew that I had passed out but for about 8 seconds I couldn't move nor get my eyes to focus.  It's wierd.  You know what's happend to you but you can't react to stimulus.  I kinda miss it.
