Could be a lot of things.  Eye strain, low blood sugar, pregnancy.  Think about what and how often you've been eating.  Think about how much time a day you sit in front of a computer, reading, or driving, anything that could strain your eyes.  And also consider if you could be pregnant.  If you can't come up with anything there, talk to your doctor.\n\nGood luck and I hope you feel better soon!!!!

It could be vertigo, I had that after an accident, it is due to the inner ear. There is medication for it.

I would say if it's been a while since you got up and started moving around, the feeling should be back... I would call your doctor.  It could've been like a pin stroke.

If you can't see your family Dr. until Monday, I'd recommend going to a 24 hour clinic or emergency room.  If the dizziness is so severe that the accompanying nausea has prevented you from getting any hydration or nutrition, you need to get stabilized ASAP.  \n\nIf the dizziness is a spinning sensation (vertigo), it's probably your inner ear- again a number of things can cause it; a viral or bacterial infection of the inner or middle ear, a rupture in an inner ear membrane that leads to Meniere's disease, or loose particles within the inner ear that cause Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo. Even neurological problems like Migraine headaches and strokes can cause dizziness and balance problems.\n\nBe sure to provide as many details as you can to help pinpoint the cause. Include: when did the symptoms start? Did you have any other symptoms related to the dizziness (headache, ringing or other noises in the ear [tinnitus], pressure or pain in the ear/s, nausea/vomiting, visual changes, etc.)? Did you have any prescription changes in the month preceding the initial onset? Had you been ill in the month preceding the initial onset? How long do the episodes last? During an episode, what does the "dizziness" really feel like? Is there anything that seems to trigger or signal an episode? Is there anything you can do that seems to help you feel better? Does anyone else in your family history have similar symptoms? Have you ever had similar symptoms, or a history of ear problems before?\n\nDizziness and nausea is like a headache or fever -- it's a vague symptom, and getting a detailed case history is really the best way to narrow down options and select diagnostic tests.  But don't wait any longer to get checked out, because the sooner it gets properly diagnosed and treated, the better your chances for a complete recovery.

are you doing anything just before or during that makes them come on?  like standing up?  a lot of dizzy spells are from low blood preasure, especially when standing up (it's called orthostatic hypotension).  also it can come from low blood sugar.   so make sure you're not getting too hungry by snacking on fruits during the day and drink plenty of water.

Dizziness, or vertigo, is sometimes caused by excessive motion, like a carnival ride going too fast. Your brain cannot assimilate all the sensations that are going on to help you keep your balance. So, if you eat a couple of elephant ears, a pronto pup and a burger and chase it down with a Coke, then you get on the scrambler, your brain is going to try to help you keep your balance while you are on the scrambler. You will "hurl your lunch" because your brain is busy helping your body keep it's balance. \n\nDizziness can also be a symptom of the flu or some other ailment. Throwing up can just be because your body is run down and it is rejecting the work of digesting your food because it needs to concentrate on whatever it is that is making you sick, like the flu or an infection or something.

I get them once in awhile and for me, I get really short of breath and start to hyperventalate (spelling).  I feel like the room is spinning sometimes and I get dizzy.  Sometimes you can feel like everyone is staring at you.  It is really hard to describe as each person has their own reactions.  But that is pretty much the jist of it all.

When you stand up too fast you have a sudden drop in blood pressure which can cause you to be light headed.  It can happen to anyone.  Have your blood pressure checked next time you are at the doctor just in case.  Another possibility is that it may be blood sugar related.  If it has been a long day and you haven't eaten dinner yet your body could just need equilibrium.  Or a combo of the 2.  Ask your doctor if you are really concerned about it.\nTake care.

I am like that now. The light headed, weak, and tired part. I deal with it by going for a walk outside. Being out in the weather tends to get me used to it and the things wrong don't happen anymore. You could try this.

There's so many things that can cause dizziness.  I got new glasses one time and was dizzy for a while because the perscription wasn't right.  You could have a lot of stress too, which can make you dizzy.  Some people feel a slight buzz in their head, usually shooting straight back from your forehead along the sides of your head.  You could also have an ear wax build up.  Since you had those other tests ruled out, you might also ask your doctor about Lyme's Disease, depending on where you live.  You can get it anywhere, but it's really uncommon in some parts.  I live in Pennsylvania, and it's a lot more prevalent here, and one of the symptoms is dizziness.  Either way, don't give up.  It's hard going back into the doctor's office time and time again.

This sounds like a classic case of vertigo. It is not a disease in itself, but a symptom of another condition. Vertigo occurs when the central nervous system receives conflicting messages fromt he inner ear, eyes , muscles and skin pressure receptors.  It can be a result of many disorders. Brain tumors, high or low blood pressure, allergies, diabetes, head injuries, inadequate or interrupted supply of oxygen to the brain anemia, viral infection , fever or from certain kinds of drugs. \n\nBasically your symptoms do sound like vertigo, but what is causing it could be many things. There are at least a 100 different syndromes that can include the symptoms of vertigo, its figuring out what is causing it that is the problem. \n\nHowever, what I can give you are a few well known herbal remedies you can start. The ones im going to list are directly related to getting more oxygen to the brain. Its a good place to start. Matter fact, it might be the best place to start, without enough oxygen to the brain, you will have ever single symptom you have listed. \n\nDMG = Dimethylglycine , increases oxygen to the brain.\n\nVitamin B complex = These vitamins are necessary for normal brain and nervous system function.\n\nVitamin C , alot of it. It Improves circulation. Do you by chance bruise easily? This is a result of not enough vitamin C , also bleeding gums. \n\nCholin and Inositol = Necessary in nerve function\n\nCo enzyme 10 = Improves circulation to the brain, well known for its antioxidant properties and it strengthens the heart muscle. \n\nGinko Biloba = very well known for its brain function improvement, it directly improves oxygen flow to the brain.\n\nA good multivitamin =  Can never go wrong with a good multi

It sounds like it may be migraine associated dizziness. It is not uncommon for people who have migraines to experience dizziness along with them.

Never had that happen before.... but it could have been something similar to a panic attack where your senses became heightened? Just a guess...

You need to see an ENT. I have Meneivere's Disease and it makes me feel that way. But its more than likely an inner ear infection or disorder. Beleive me I know what it feels like. Its horrible. I have had my disease since 88 but it has tapered off. The Dr can perscribe antivert, which works well for the dizziness and nausea, but valium works better for severe vertigo. Go to the DR.

I am an alternative medicinal therapist and an ex nurse. This is not an easy question to answer without more information. You could have a migraine, or something more serious, I'm going by the dizziness. Do you have blurred vision sometimes, if so go and see your doctor at once.If not, then you could have just slept wrong and cramped the sternomastoid muscle at the sides of the neck, press it, if it hurts then that's the problem. If not it may very  well be a migraine. Have you had your eyesight tested or perhaps you are near your period.It could even be your teeth.If you are over 18 you can take FEVERFEW capsules from your health store. They take a while to get into your system but they do work. Try placing an ice pack at the back of your neck. It does help. I know.\n\nGloria(BSYA) gloriashealth@btinternet.com
