Question 1

i have been dizzy for four days  why could this happen?

Accepted Answer

Labyrinthitis: There are many reasons for this but most likely you many have viral labyrinthitis which can cause acute onset of vertigo. Treatment is rest, plenty of fluids and sometimes medications like meclizine. If could also be bpv (benigh positional vertigo) in which case certain head turning exercises may help. Finally it could be something serious as a cerebellar stroke so please see your doctor.

Question 2

i got off a cruise about four days ago- i consumed a lot of alcohol - the past few days i'm extremely tired and dizzy- no stumbling  just feeling it.?

Accepted Answer

Poison: Alcohol is a metabolic poison and you just poisoned yourself. You will eventually recover from this poisoning, unless you choose to do this over and over again until you have permanent damage. Eat healthy (stay away from sugars and fried foods) get some rest and let your system recover.

Question 3

the past four days, ive been feeling a little bit dizzy, it is absolutely not severe. can that be a stroke ? i am also someone who has severe anxiety. i dont have any other symptoms?

Accepted Answer

: It is not feasible to confirm or disconfirm a disease or stroke, based upon your vague and general comments.  We can do far better with more precise information, BUT, a  virtual consult on HT could best be an excellent way to evaluate your situation and point the way to intervention, as needed.

Question 10

i had pain in my left arm from my shoulder to my fingertips with some pain in my neck, headache and dizziness, these pains continued for four days, after i took anafranil 10mg to treat anxiety what should i do ? im worried?

Accepted Answer

: You should stop anafranil and observe the current symptoms. If they slowly resolve after 3-5 days, anafranil's side effects are likely the culprit then you need a different medication for anxiety disorder. If symptoms persist, you have a separated issue which has nothing to do with anafranil.
