Medical Advice Needed.

Right for a long time now i have been getting these light head rushes which at first weren’t to bad they were only on occasions and very mild, but over the time since it started they are getting worse, i think its been going on for a year now.
I went to the doctors and they thought it would be not enough food or drink, they also cheked my blood pressure to see if that was the cause of it, but my blood is normal.
they got worse to where i nearly collapsed and had to steady myself against a wall or door.
Today it got so bad that i nearly passed out my vision went fuzzy and nearly completely black, my legs nearly gave out under me it felt like my whole body weight 10x more then it normally does and it really hurt and has left me with a huge head ache even tho it was over an hour ago.
Im 18, not over weight and not underweight im probably the normal weight for my age and my height.

Does any body know what this is?
Should i go back to the doctors again?

Rather worried about this please help.
Thank you.

Have they checked you for

- mononucleosis
- anemia
- other blood tests

You need a complete history and checkup and some blood tests. If those don’t show anything, maybe a brain scan.

Yes, I think you should go back to the doctor again.

I had that and was diagnosed with vertigo.. had never heard of it but it is like when you stand up very quickly and get a head rush but this is constant. There is medication for it. Also you might want to think about getting your inner ear and or eyes checked both are part of balance. Something as simple as an inner ear infection can affect you in this way also

You need to go to the emergency room asap and make them take tests on you. This rea,lly dosn’t sound good.
