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 have type 2 diabetes and fibromyalgia. I take Metformin and glipizide for the diabetes. Recently I was having severe never pain in my left side of my head, cluster nerve pain in my temple. My doctor diagnosed it as a form of neuropathy. I take Duloxetine for my fibromyalgia nerve pain already but he put me on Gapapetin for the neuropathy. It helped with the nerve pain but I have been so dizzy for the last couple of weeks since being on it, plus having tingling in both hands. I also was diagnosed with carpal tunnel. I ve been checking my sugar numerous times a day and it doesn t correlate with the dizziness so far. I m worried about it being a heart issue.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Gabapentin drug can cause dizziness. You should mention your age as well because increased levels of growth hormone can also lead to such symptoms. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
