I was laying in bed last night not worried in the slightest about anything, i have been doing ok the last month. I had a massive head swing and then a few seconds later i had another. I started to feel hot and panicky and my head felt heavy and really dizzy, i felt sick and i needed the toilet. My balance was all over the place when i went to the toilet and i had to hold on to doors etc. My head feels weird and heavy today and if i move my head quick i feel dizzy. I don't want to start thinking brain diseases etc but it's just so hard to think rational when things come out of the blue and your head feels like mush again.
I am seeing an ent specialist in 2 weeks but i am not confident they will know what's going on.
It always feels like i take 2 steps forward and 3 steps back every time.

HI Zippy,

glad to hear you have had a good month,

keep onto that thought and thik of this as a blip, a tired mind can produce very off symtpoms and as soon as the head swing started you then went full swing into a panic attack, feeling sick etc. classic symptom.

you then wake up and think about the symptom and probably hardly slept that night worrying. which starts the cycle of anxiety symptoms.

Try to relax and speak to your ent specialist. I saw one when i had bad dizzyness and everything turned out fine and it went away.

I had bad vertigo a few months ago and felt like it had eased a bit the last month but it's back. I just can never understand how things come out of the blue when I am not stressed or worried. Things can just change in an instant. I was ok yesterday and then that episode happened last night and today I feel like a different person again. It feels like my head goes foggy and it hinders my rational thoughts. I have cried all day, dizzy, foggy head, fatigue, headache etc. I hate it.

I have had bad vertigo also, I do not know what it is? and now that you have it in your mind and dwell on it? it seems to be there all the time. It's like that for me now anyway. It's so difficult to realise whether it is because your thinking about it day after day or because you may be actually ill. I just don't know.

Let me know if you get better.

Thanks.

I know i woke at 6 this morning sweating and couldn't get back to sleep. I feel off balance today and it's making me walk funny. It's worrying me that it's m.s or brain tumour. I thought it had gone the last few weeks. I also get headaches when my head is like this and mild earache in my left ear. It's quite scary so it's a vicious circle that sets anxiety off again.
