Hi everyone,
I have a beautiful 6 month old son who I'm trying to enjoy and my life is being ruined and taken over by these symptoms I'm having. For years now I've been convinced I've got a brain tumour due to server dizziness that I'm experiencing. Whildt I was pregnant I still had symptoms but not as bad and it was ok because I could relate them to being pregnant... it was such a happy time for me.
Now my son has been born it has been so amazing. He is the loveliest little boy. I am trying to enjoy his first years but it's being ruined by my symptoms 😟 I'm still breastfeeding him but only about twice a day now as he is being weaned. I am constantly exhausted, my head is constantly full of pressure and my neck is always so stiff. My head always feels so fuzzy and dizzy and sometimes I'll be standing up doing something ans all of a sudden I need to sit down as I get that feeling of low bp (it is low as been checkled but not massively low). I feel like I can't even lift my limbs without them feeling numb and aching for some reason. My ears are constant popping and going deaf and then ringing for some reason. Even if I just lean on a limb or lay on my side that side of my body will go completely numb...
Anyway last night something happened which has petrified me... I woke up and instantly felt dizzy whilst laying down. My body felt strange I felt freezing but my skin was sweating and clammy. I began to sit up to see if that helped and I woke my partner up by accident. I suddenly couldn't breathe and I felt as though I was falling backwards. I instantly had a massive urge to go for a wee and had to rush to the loo and urinate... in which time I almost collapsed abd held the sink to help me stay standing. I then laid back in bed and was awake since 4am. About 7am I attempted tk sit again and I was still dizzy but not as much... I've been a bit lightheaded this morning but then all of a sudden whildt laying on the sofa with my son the dizziness came again and I had to go for a wee again. I literally have no idea what's wrong with me... I feel so incredibly alone and it's literally ruining my life. I've been to the doctors countless times and they just say oh your tired from having a new baby or oh your fine and don't bother testing or anything. I've had a few blood tests which came out normal apart from very slight low iron which didn't even need tablets. This has happened another time when we were camping. So basically it's constant dizziness and lightheaded and then instant dizziness where I feel the need to urinate short of breathe and feel like I'm going to collapse. I am so so so fed up now. I can't live mt life anymore. I'm just sag here waiting to collapse because now I know there is something seriously wrong. I also have to make sure I always have food with me as I go extremely shaky and feel like my legs go like jelly and short of breath when I don't eat frequently. What's going on with me? 😟 can this really be anxiety?
