A member asked:

Been feeling light headed and dizzy for over a week to the point sometimes i am nauseated could this be something major or can it be caused by stress?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dizzy and nausea: If your symptoms have persisted for over a week it is a good idea to see your physician. There are several causes of dizziness, from infection, inner ear problem, dehydration, heart issue, pregnancy... Most of the time it's nothing serious in a young woman like you, but get checked out to be sure.
