Hi,
i'm new here...Wondering if someone can
help shed light on what's happening to
me.
On january 4, I started to feel "crummy",
like I was coming down with some kind of
cold. I could barely sleep at all that
night; I kept having these weird waves of
dizziness that washed over me on the top
left side of my head. The next day I
felt nauseous (although not to the point
where I needed to throw up) and a complete
malaise and lack of affect.
I went to the doctor a few days later,
after it didn't subside. He thought it
might be related to the sinusitis problems
i've had with the left maxillary sinus.
Fair enough. He prescribed an
antibiotic.
The antibiotic didn't do anything. Now,
a month later, although it's not quite so
bad, I still have some residual dizziness
(so slight that it's barely noticeable,
but just enough to be noticeable); I have
a general "queasy" feeling (again, very
slight, but just enough to be noticeable),
and I don't feel like doing anything. I
talked to the doctor again a week ago or
so; he sent me for some blood work
(checking thyroid and so on), and it all
came back negative.
I'm feeling like i'm starting to forget
what it was like to feel "well," and i'm
really starting to get scared. I can't
get a ct scan here in canada for quite
awhile; my next appointment I was able to
get with an ent doctor is on march 17. I
can't wait that long, i'm going crazy!
Could this be some weird virus that will
just go away eventually? An inner ear
issue? (the doctor looked in my ears and
said he can't see anything wrong).
Something else?My left sinus up around the
bridge of my nose feels a bit "tight", but
then again it doesn't hurt; and besides,
it's always felt a bit "tight." I
sometimes have some very slight headaches
in the middle of my forehead.
Please...Help!
