Suggest Treatment For Balancing Issues, Fatigue And Tingling Sensation In Hands

Question: I have been feeling slightly off balance ( sudden bouts of dizziness - light headed ), having a dull headache, experiencing lack of concentration, can't think clearly and slight fatigue. The worse part is the tingling in my hands and feet... kind of like on the verge of " pins and needles ". My feet have the sensation of being cold when they are not. I've been to the chiropractor and that did not help. This has been going on for about 2 weeks and getting worried it is something serious.
Brief Answer:
Need a doctor examination
Detailed Answer:
hi,
This can be serious. Any benign or mild variants would not be so long. Benign issues are temporary and would not cause off balance for two weeks.
If I were your doctor I need to check your blood pressure, monitor it hourly or daily, similarly heart rate. Besides running some blood test would help to identify the problem easily. I would suspect uncontrolled blood pressure, check sugar, electrolytes in particular.
Hence I suggest to meet your regular primary care doctor for the same.
I suggest not to wait any further in taking an appointment and meeting one in person.
