Suggest Treatment For Cold, Fogginess And Momentary Weakness Upon Standing
Question: yes, In May of 2008 I got a cold overnight and fought it off that morning but could not get rid of a little bug on my right upper lung, it stayed there for a couple years and then started moving up to my head, it felt like the size of a golf ball but was not an actual thing but like a air pocket moving up and when it got to my mouth it wrinkled the inside of it , then it passed up into my head all this took 3 months to happen so for the past so many years I have this fogginess and instant weakness when I stand up thing going on which needless to say stops me from doing almost anything in life, any help is looked forward to. Thanks

Could you please tell me if you experience frequent attacks of cold?
could i please know you are a diabetic since how long?
Also are you on any medications?
About the bug and weakness that it has caused to you, you can always get a chest Xray .
About it passing to your head it is unlikely cause the connection beteen your head and chest is not that big to let a golf ball sized bug pass through it.
About haziness and weakness, it can be dealt with.
You need to start taking Tablet Vitamin B supplements daily twice for atleast 3 months. Your weakness shall reduce . You need to concentrate on your diet. Eat fibrous diet and rich in vegetables and non fattening fruits.
About haziness , a consultation with an opthalmologist is essential . He shall do a clinical examination and fundoscopy(non invasive) to rule out any ophthalmic conditions due to diabetes.
Please donot worry about the bug as a chest Xray and water's view Xray of skull(showing the sinuses) can rule out presence of any bug.
Also kindly be occupied with work and hobbies. Speak to your friends and learn to do new things that keep you occupied.
Hope this answered your query.
