so, this is how my story goes: i am 30
year old female. i have been diagnosed
with asthma when i was 15, since then i
have been having problems, but for the
past 3 years asthma is under control since
i have been on seretide 250 mg. i also
have nose polips and chronic sinus
infection. my nose was runny for 3 yers or
so, but since i am using one drug
containing budesonide i am ok, my nose is
not runny anymore.
so , here it is what's bothering me. from
time to time i have this strange symptoms:
i feel very lightheaded, i have some
strange foggy feeling in my head, usually
no specific headaches, just some head
pressure between my eyes and on my
forehead.
i hate that foggy feeling, 'cos it makes
me feel very blurry, like i am in a
twilight zone, that i cannot concentrate
well..
the first time something like this
happened was 2 years ago when i had my
first migraine attack, and then after the
attck passed, i was feeling foggy for week
or so. but now, when this fogginess
happens, i don't experience migraine
headache, just that pressure on my
forehead that i was talking about.
besides that, i don't get any vertigo, i
wouldn't say that i have that usual dizzy
spells, it is just that i sometimes feel
unstable in my head, like i am on a boat
or something like that.
also i would like to point out that i am a
serious worry person, i worry about
everything, i am also hypohondriac and the
smallest thing is a misery to me during past years,
due to some emotional and family problem,
i have developed some anxiety problems too
- stomachache, stomach neurosis, non
visible shaking from the inside and
headpressure.
one other thing - i have developed some
neck pain lately due to bad posture. i am
shortsighted, i wear contact lenses,
sometimes glasses, i don't see much
without it
so , while sitting in front of pc, i
automaticlly go forward, to see the
monitor better, which is causing my neck
pain.
so, here is my question: my head problems
(foggy feeling, lightehaded, dizzy) -
could there be a result of chronic
sinusitis, even though i don't have runny
nose, nor any other symptom of sinusitis,
besides high forehead pressure. or, these
sypmtoms are also a result of my anxiety,
or even neck problems and bad posture? or,
the worst option of all, is this isolated
symptom which should be treated? remmeber,
i am a hypohondriac, so i am thinking
about all other terrible things.. MS is my
fave immaginary disease heheh
fogginess is the thing that worries me the
most.
sorry for the long post.. hope someone
will be able to help me
thank you

Actually, these symptoms might be result
of DIET. Try cutting out all dairy (milk,
eggs, butter, yogurt), sweets and caffeine
(tea, coffee). Increase your intake of
fresh vegetables, especially green
veggies. Try this for 2-3 weeks and see
how you feel.
