Hi. I have a trapped nerve..L4 area and I woke feeling dizzy this morning. I was sick,head achy, but I am still dizzy though not as bad as I was. This is twice in the last fortnight. I have had a root nerve injection three weeks ago. Should I speak with my specialist about this please.

Dizziness and head ache can not be due to your nerve compression but can happen if you are taking Gabapentin or tramadol. These medication are often prescribed for nerve compression. Also sometime Low Blood pressure can cause these type of symptoms.
