What Causes Dizziness And Pain In Eye, Head, Arms And Shoulders?
Question: I have had occasional shooting pain in my eye/eyes over at least a year or so. Also, I have had shooting pains in my head for the last 7, 8 months. The last thing is ... I have begun having occasional momentary dizziness. I thought on one more thing...occasional pains in my arms and shoulders.
I started using a CPAP machine in September. I also use a saline nasal cleanse from a bottle. I started using the saline clean two years ago. Could this be all related to a sinus infection? Or could it be something more serious?
