Question 1

Likely not: Dry eyes can cause drying of the cornea. Balance is mediated by the inner ear and cerebellum...

Question 2

Accepted Answer

Many symptoms: High potassium is usually seen with kidney failure or taking certain medications. Low white blood cell count is usually due to viral illness or bone marrow disorders. Dry eyes occur in some autoimmune diseases. Your physician would be best qualified to evaluate you.

Question 3

sudden head rush coupled with brief dizziness. minor headache dry eyes, brain fog afterwards. (normal mri) thoughts?

Accepted Answer

Sudden low BP: It sounds like your blood pressure is dropping briefly. When this happens, you will get dizzy, possibly get a headache and your brain can feel foggy from a brief lessening of oxygen. With the dry eyes as well, it sounds like you may be dehydrated. You are in a heat wave. Make sure you keep your fluids up. If it worsens, go to the er for IV replenishment.

Question 4

dry eyes. headache. dizziness. pressure in face and nose. fullness in head. and occasionally hoarseness. started first day of spring. treatment?

Accepted Answer

Check with your Dr.: Many of your symptoms sound like sinus type issues-particularly the pressure in the face and nose. This can also lead to inner ear problems if there is an infection or inflammation here. It does not appear that you have been treated with a decongestion yet. You may want to see your physician to see if you need antibiotics.

Accepted Answer

? Sjogrens: Your symptoms can be seen in primary or secondary Sjogren's syndrome as many of these patients have skin manifestations along with dry eyes and mouth amongst other symptoms.  I recommend consulting a rheumatologist for evaluation, testing.and advice.

Question 7

period hasn't come.negative pregnancy test.nausea,vomiting,flank pain,decreased appetite,feverish,dizziness.dry eyes,trouble walking,abdo pain.help?

Accepted Answer

Urgent care or ER: It can be many things. Extrauterine pregnancy is part of the differential. However, you can't rule out appendix issues, amongst others. This is more concerning because you have fevers. Question is what is causing the inflammation? At the very least, contact your primary care as they will have an opportunity to do a complete exam and compare with your past history.

Question 8

does dry eyes cause pain in the eyes?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Adequate tears are necessary to lubricate the top layer of the cornea, the clear dome over the fron of your eye and the conjunctiva, the "skin" over your eye ball.  When they are insufficient, small defects can occur in the top layer, exposung nerves underneath- and this causes discomfort, sandy or gritty feeling and pain.

Question 9

does lexotan cause dry eyes? taking 0.75mg daily.

Accepted Answer

Not listed: Dry eyes are not listed as a side effect but there is a history of some antidepressants having that side effect. Middle age is a time of life that many people do suffer this condition and you might ask your PCP, opthalmologist  or a pharmacist for ideas. Drinking lots of water may help and using good OTC eye moisturizers. Take care, best wishes!
