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.
What Causes Severe Dizziness While On Hydrocodone?
My husband is dealing with extreme dizziness tonight. BP 180/90, P 98. Came home with blood sugar of 487 treated with 18 units humolog. Woke up dizzy. Is on hydrocodone for chronic pain. Only took one 10mg tab today. He took a 5mg when he got home and then one hour ago took another 10mg. Nothing is helping.
Pain and burning sensation can happen due to compression of spinal nerves. It happens on that part of leg, which is supplied by that nerve. I advice you to go for MRI spine for complete evaluation and diagnosis. The physiotherapy procedures, like traction release the pressure of the effected nerves and provide you fast relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
