Hi,
I started getting headaches in May and posted about it on here. They eventually eased off. Five weeks ago I had my first ever attack of vertigo when I felt very dizzy and everything was spinning. I was then ok for two weeks. Three weeks ago I had another vertigo attack. Since then I have felt very ill - exhaustion, no appetite, dizzy, faint, large floaters in my vision and headache in the morning and vomiting. I have seen my GP twice and an out of hours doctor and have been to A and E once. Apart from slightly low in iron, but not enough to be anaemic, they haven't found anything. They all think it is my inner ear either crystals, or labyrinthitis. Except my recent trip to the GP thought it could be migraine but has also ordered an urgent neurology appointment in the next two weeks for a brain scan to rule out anything else.
All this has also triggered my anxiety and panic attacks, so I am getting all of those symptoms as well including chest pains, which is making me panic more.
I am so scared. I have spent the last couple of weeks too ill to even walk around my house.
