What Causes Fluttering Sensation In The Head And Dizziness?

I have a jumping/pounding and fluttering sensation in my head that radiates down to my chest. It s being accompanied with headaches, confusion, disorientation, black outs and feeling faint, speech impetiment, dizziness, and nausea. CT scan was clear, was tested for seizures and that came back clean. Only meds I m on is 100mg Zoloft 2x daily and 100mg trazadone as needed. What is going on?!

Hi,

I would like to tell you that you need a basic cardiac evaluation to evaluate the cause of blackouts.

Kindly get done an ECG, Echocardiography and Holter and consult a physician with reports.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
