I have dizzy spells and have had them on and off for a few months (feeling it now) i have been to the doctor a few times about it i've been told it was labrynthitus and i went a few days ago and came out worse and also felt angry (so angry i walked home and i don't walk much), he checked for vertigo (which it isn't) but didn't check my ears or blood pressure, he said it was because of my mood and feeling low. he told me to go out more (hard to do when you feel dizzy) and because i only had a part time job i have alot of time on my hands. he kept looking at his watch and told me to go see the doctor i usually see ( i would but impossible to get app when i want)
it can appear at anytime, anywhere i haven't been able to put a pattern to it (thought i'd found a pattern because it seemed to be before the 'time of the month' but the pattern has changed) i thought maybe it was the meds (i've been on citalopram 20g for about a year and the spells developed more frequently over the last few months) should i come off them?
i am now feeling that i can't cope with it anymore, i'm going insane, it's affecting everything i do and doctors don't understand and i just want to stay in bed and sleep as then i don't know it's there.
i don't seem to be able to ignore it and carry on.
would love to hear a medical explanation for it as i think knowing why would put my mind at rest
does anyone know of anything i can do to make them subside. please feel free to pm me
on my way home from doctors i decided (in my angry state) that i'm the only one that can do anything about it i want to get better and i'm sick of nobody taking notice of me, i have been going out more but still feeling the same. i don't know what else to do.
sorry i know i'm ranting and probably skipping from subject to subject but i'm really at a dead end, please i would welcome any advice
