Have Dizziness And Nausea. Why Is There A Sensation Of Swelling Of Head?
Fro Charlotte - My husband has the problem of a feeling of swelling of the head accompanied with dizziness and nausea. We have been to see our heart doctor and an ENT but both of the doctors felt his condition was not something that they could diagnose.

hi there
by your question i am assuming that he feels there is a swelling of head while there actually is no real swelling of head
this is associated with vertigo and nausea
this may actually be a pca infarct
i would suggest you get an mri brain with mr angiography as soon as possible
please note my judgement is limited by the information you provided
i have no idea about his age, habits, prior medical issues and medicines
best of luck
