Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was recently diagnosed with Vertigo. It s been a few days and it does not go away. I am dizzy, guidy, and feel fatigued. Recently I have been getting these sort of electric shocks going through my body. I m scared its Multiple Sclerosis. My Neurologist appointment is 3 weeks away. Is this something to be alarmed about?
Understanding your concern. As per you query you are suffering from vertigo and fatigue . Well there can be many reasons for vertigo like benign paroxysmal positional vertigo , Vertigo may also be caused by inflammation within the inner ear sometimes due to infection , meniere's disease , acoustic neuroma and multiple sclerosis. I would suggest you to consult with ENT specialist for proper checkup so that there will not be any further complication . As you already booked appointment with neurologist , so also consult wth neurologist. Doctor may order certain test like CT scan , MRI , blood test , audiometery test , rotatory chair test and ECG to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may prescribe ant emetic drug , sedatives , antibiotics and some ear aid . For now avoid bending foreword and do light exercises daily .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
