hi all
it start about ten days ago, i woke up one morning and the moment i lifted my head from the pillow i felt dizzy. i have had head rushes before and just worked throughout them, but this was different, the disorientation stayed with me for about 3 hours until it started to calm down (or maybe i started to calm down) but it was staff there slightly. anyway it seemed to fade away over next few days, still able to play squash and work. but then on Sunday it came back. if i sat still it felt like my head was swimming, then at time as it a band was pulled tightly around my forehead and then other time it as if my heart beat was in my nose and eyes areas and making pressure feelings. Monday night had a massive panic attacked that wiped me out for the next day. saw doctor half past 4 and she did neurological checks on me which were fine, took my blood pressure which was fine despite being a nervous wreck, and took my pulse which was racing. she said she doest think there is anything physically wrong with me and gave me lorazepam to calm me down. i woke up today not feeling to dizzy until someone said to me wow you look like you have lost weight! i left where i was and ran home to the scales and yep i had lost 4lbs from somewhere which started my panic off twice as worse. i tried to rationalise to myself that since i became dizzy over a week ago i had not eaten a thing hardly and not drunk and really because i couldn't stomach anything, and with constant heart rate up im sure that all plays apart in losing that 4 lbs?
im a mess right now and just seeking some advice or support please!!!!!!!!!!
