Ive suffered from bouts of dizziness on and off for years. Ive seen and ENT specialist for this problem. He did and MRI which was negitive. VDRL bloodwork which was negitive. It seems to be brought on sometimes when I get overheated from a muggy atmosphere sometimes or from high heat from the son. It once put me in bed for 4 days with violent dizzyspells.

Hello dear,

The causes for the symptoms as mentioned in your post can be:
1. Any pathology in the Vestibular apparatus in the inner ear, which maintains posture & balance.
2. Any fluctuation in the blood pressure & blood sugar levels.
3. Inadequate hydration status & electrolyte balance of the body.
4. Deficiencies of certain nutrients like Iron, Vitamin B 12, Folic acid, etc. which helps in blood formation & nerve conduction.
5. Hormonal & metabolic causes.
6. Stress, inadequate sleep, etc.

Investigations like complete blood count, estimation of blood pressure & blood sugar levels will be helpful to rule out any pathological cause for the symptoms.

And it is also needed that you take certain precautions regarding your diet & lifestyle, such as:
1. Take soft, plain, non-spicy foods
2. Drink lots of water to maintain adequate hydration
3. Avoid fast food.
4. Avoid smoking & alcohol.
5. Keep away stress..think positive.
6. Exercise regularly & practice meditation.

Wishing you a Good Health.
Thanks & take care.
