What Causes Dizzy Spells Along With Disorientation?

hi i have been having sort of dizzy dazed and confused episodes the other day i was sweating all of a sudden then felt dizzy and saw stars.. it finally went away and i haven t felt 100% since then. I am at work presently and feel a little dazed and confused. I have high blood pressure and am on meds and it is low now. unsure what could be going on. Called my doctors and he retired and it will be 2 weeks to get into new one. They advised me to go to ER if this persists.

Hi dear ,

Welcome to HCM,

Understanding your concern .As per your query you are suffering from dizzy spells along with disorientation. The symptoms you mention in query are pointing towards a condition that affect middle ear like meniere's disease , labyrinthitis or otitis media. But it seems to me that the symptoms are pointing towards ear infection also known as labyrinthitis . I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist or otolaryngologist for proper checkup . Doctor may order hearing test , CT OR MRI scan , EEG, ENG and blood test to find out the exact cause and rule out above mention conditions . Doctor may prescribe anti histamine , sedatives , antibiotics and anti ametic drugs . Doctor may also refer you to neurologist for migraine . Doctor may also refer you to endocrinologist. Meditation will help alot in this condition.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
