Severe Dizziness Posted: 11-18-05 13:10pm
It started over a month ago and it got
worse and worse to the point I felt like
passing out all day and I could not even
function. I thought it was my anorexia
but I ate and ate and ate and gained 10
pounds in 2 weeks thinking it would help
but it only got worse. I finially went to
the doctors (barely even made it there, I
could hardly talk was all confused and my
vision was so blurry, I thought I was
dying!!!) I got blood tests and found out
I had low thyroid. I was put on the
lowest dose and no improvement until
yesterday, the 7th day of the pills. I
was a little dizzy yesterday but had the
strenght to make some soup and today I
feel almost normal!!! Could low thyroid
really cause a person to feel so bad, they
think they are dying? The symtoms were
bad. I honestly thought someone was
poisoning me or something. Oh yea...I
finially got my appetite back too!!! I am
soooo happy that I feel sooo good again!!!

I was anorexic years ago finally put on
weight still a struggle i'm in size 5
womens , a few years ago I was diagnosed
with rynauds and I have been having
problems with menstral so I finally went
to see the doctor for a physical after
abusing my body for 29 years sense I had a
swollen neck painful sex and chest pains
so I wound up giving blood and taking an
ekg blood pressure to high thats a duh
because i'm in traffic all day under
pressure needless to say I had a stress
test more blood and now have been
diagnosed with hashimoto's disease heart
is fine but stress test caused me to
loosen stones in my head don't laugh they
are in my inner ear and this has caused
virtago hahaha. Unable to drive my 80,ooo
lb missle through the streets of detroit
i'm on meds for the hash and was for the
vertigo but was given exercises where you
sit up and lean over on side for 30
seconds then sit up for thirty again and
repeat on other side keeping this up for
thirty reps seems to be working i'm still
dizzy but not like I was and the meds they
put me on took away the nausia but left me
dizzy sleepy nervous with blurred vision
so I believe the vertigo is gone sense i'm
not nausious just dizzy next I have to
have surgery to remove a fel tube that is
full of liquid pap smear came back nothing
wrong from two different doctors this was
found with ultrasound next month I get a
mammogram what fun and possible surgery
for tube
