Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Dear This eve. I got suddenly feeling of unbalance and fainting. Some sudden pressure in my right ear and tone. Even after several hours I still feel a lots of pressure at the top of my head. I went to emergency room and after a test of stroke-possiblity they decided to discharge me and ask me to monitor the situation and visit the ER if things got worse. What could be going wrong with me? 55 years old and diabetic Thanks
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it could be vertigo and it may be due to vestibular dysfunction on tentative basis it can be managed with "Tab Betahistine 8 mg" three times in day, if the symptoms not improved then it may need some investigation like EKG, ECHO, CT of brain, hope this information may helps you take care and have a nice day.
