Hi Ms Suganthi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I have noted your symptoms. It is unfortunate that you have consulted so many doctors and taken so many tablets, without any significant relief of symptoms.

However, I would like to reassure you that there is no need to worry about your symptoms, as CT scan has come out as normal.

Your haemoglobin is low, suggestive of anemia. This can cause dizziness. You should take iron supplements.

The other cause of dizziness could be BPPV-benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. In this condition, there could be a minor dysfunction in the middle ear.

In either case, you should take betahistine tablets. Doing vestibular rehabilitation exercises would also help.

You should get better in 1-2 weeks.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,
