Hi all,
I have something going on with my balance and its been bugging me a lot lately Can't figure out whether its ear, eye, neck or brain that's doing it or a combo!
Letting you know, I suffer from migraines, vertigo, anemia, health anxiety, stress and general anxiety.
Because of the balance issues, its made me feel more bound to staying indoors.
I have a noise in my right ear, sometimes I get a shaky feeling and a sort of fullness in my head and hard to concentrate at times, just want to close my eyes and rest.
I had a dizzy spell in the worst place possible, whilst crossing the road when traffic was oncoming! The cars were not close but the road seemed to move from up and down, and made me freeze and cos of this I moved back to the path and closed my eyes a few seconds and all was back to normal again. I made it home and since this happened last Sunday, it has put me off going out. I just don't want to hit hard concrete and injure myself further!
This thing with my balance first began last year, May to be precise. Was in a shop looking up at the top shelf in a store and had a dizzy spell, my friend thought it was low blood pressure but turns out the stress is causing a slightly elevated blood pressure.
I have been diagnosed with anxiety. Have been trying to work on myself and improve my health, but stress exacerbates it ten fold. I am trying new things out and alternative medication with small successes. I don't know what to do, I am scared to go to the doctor incase its something serious and i need major surgery and will be out daily life for some months ...just panicking here and am not feeling the best cos of it.
Any advice please
