Weather Systems & Extreme Dizziness, Blurred Vision, Nec Posted: 08-18-07 10:37am
Help! I live in Chicago area and for 3
years have been plagued by days of extreme
sensitivity to weather changes. It seems
to occur about 2-3 days prior to storm
system moving in. I feel it coming on
with a slight dizziness only to be nearly
completely incapacitated shortly - blurred
vision (my eyes become slits), tingling in
sinus area, dizziness to the point of
diffculty standing and should not be
driving. It becomes difficult to think
and feel a racing thruout my entire
system. Pressure in the chest, hearing is
dulled, weak legs, neck pain,
constipation, loss of appetite accompany
this. Can last several hours or nearly
the entire day or several days in varying
degrees. Becomes extremely difficult to
do my job! Two years ago Sudafed would
help-I practically lived on it -
continually over the allowed amount. Four
months ago I went to a local Ambutal
become it was so intense. Then to an
ear,eyes,nose doctor - they did 3 hours of
tests for balance, hearing and vision and
I was abnormal on all - then sent for an
MRI and nothing was found. All original
tests were done again and still abnormal
on all! Blood was taken and run thru
allergy tests - nothing! I have been on
Zyrtec and Allegra D, Prednizone,
diuretics and nothing works till the
weather systems hits and then I feel
instant change coming on! I continued
with the Dr. till he finally gave up and
recommended a neurologist. Anyone with
anything like this and suggestions - I
can't live like this!!
