Hi,
I have had dizzyness for a while now and discussed it on here previously. One doctor decided it was BPPV, and another thouught an ear infection.

I also suffered from daily headaches for over a month and although they have now subsided, yesterday Ihad a whole new problem to worry me!!!!!

I was helping to prepare a childs birthday party and went to blow up some balloons. When doing this, I experienced head pains (not a headache). Ever since this, every time I make a head movement like turning in bed or stooping down I get the shooting pains.

This and the ongoing dizzy spellls, which also happen when I stoop or turn in bed, fuels my Brain Tumour thoughts. I no everone says its anxiety, but my answer to this is, dont I have a right to be anxious if I have a serious problem!!!!:weep:

Suppose I was just wondering if anybody else gets any symptoms like this??

if it happened when you were blowing up balloons then it could be connected to your ear which in itself would cause dizziness i think xxxx take care

But its the shooting head pains that bother me!! They ony last a thew seconds but occur whenever I bend over or move my head quickly

You will see there are lots of bangs / bumps / zaps / pains etc that happen to our heads and they are anxiety related (i still find that very hard to believe).
I turned my head to look at the TV and the pain that shot thro my head was awful - lasted couple of seconds - the panic a lot lot longer:blush:
Best wishes

PS - for nausea and dizziness try ""sea bands"" (they look like sweat bands) i have just tried them 3 weeks and they are GREAT...

I agree with Tees comments. I too get these alot. They stop me in my tracks as they are always in different places to last time and I worry it's something serious. Doc's have put me on 10mg nortriptyline to help with the constant headaches and it has helped a bit. Maybe have a chat with your doctor just to put your mind at rest.
