Sudden vertigo/no balance! not anxiety!!!! pledase help :(
PLEASE i need all of your help/opinions, im so worried, i feel sick with fear :(
I was at college and walking along with a friend when all of a sudden out of nowhere I lost all my balance/everything was spinning round, floor was moving and swaying and i couldnt walk. I sat down and tried to focus but couldnt see anything, vision was that blurry! floor was moving and felt like i was being pulled from side to side, it was literally like just cominhg off the waltzers at a fairground!! I then got weak right arm that i could barely feel. I had to be led to first aid room. Once i got in there i started having the biggest panic attack (which obviosly i know makes it all worse lol) and i eventually calmed down but the severe vertigo wouldnt fade. It lasted about 15 mins, and then wet but i was left with funny blurred vision, and tiredness/achey jaw n muscles alllllll day :( I went to my GP that day and he said he wants to wait to see what my results are for my Echocardiogram on 26th October. (i get bad palps with dizziness so GP wants to investigate it). Ive had normal ECG's but my doctor said ecg's arent a reliable source for heart problems, this worried me a bit, so i asked my cardiologist for an echo. Hes said if the heart scan comes back normal then he'll refer me to a neurologist but because im not having fits or fainting then he doesnt think its serious and that it could take a few weeks to see a neuro :( I just want to know whats going on im so scared, i worry everytime i get in the car (even though this sudden vertigo has only ever happened 3 times and always when im walking) but im just so scared all the time :( Nothing brought it on, i had eaten/drank and was just merrily walking along chatting to my friend, and BAM it just hit me :( Why is this happening?!! What could this be?!! Its deffo NOT anxiety, anxiety doesnt just make it go BAM like that, so sudden, and i wasnt anxious whatsoever when it happened. Im so petrified, i keep thinking a heart problem or MS (sudden balance issues are common with both of these)
PLEEEEEASE HELP IM ACTUALLY CRYING :(
