Constant Dizziness?
Posted: 01-11-07 22:57pm

I had my first panic attack in august, it was completely out of the blue, and also completely dehabilitating. Ever since then, i've had this nonstop lightheaded feeling. I've been seeing a psychologist thinking that it was anxiety, and she gave me breathing techniques for it, but I honestly don't know what it could be. The only thing I feel anxious about is having another serious long-lasting panic attack.

I'm going through all these medical things looking at fibromyalgia, thyroid problems, ear problems, and lyme disease, but it's tough to guess at them since they all have so many similiar symptoms.

Does anybody else deal with that daily woozy feeling? I just want it to go away. I have graduation, summer vacation, and even college coming up, and I know that I won't be able to handle anything in the condition i'm in.

Have you been to a neurologist to and got a mri or any cat scans to x out any seriousproblems?

Also how good are your eyes? Do you wear glasses?
How about your whitecell and potasium level count?

I am suffering from the exact same thing,have had the dizzy/woozy feeling since giving birth to my second baby in july last year!
At first I thought it was down to being tired,obviosly not as I still have it!
Im currently taking propaol for my palpataions,and panic attacks,and thought that could be causing this dizziness.
I have had loads of tests too,and nothing is worng?
I am due to see a ear specialist next month,just to complelty rule out any inner ear problems.
Im sure its down to anxiety,and just hope it goes away soon!
The best thing is just try and keep yourself busy,and try not to let it bog you down too much,it tends to get worse when you give in to it!!!!
Take care
