Dizziness, Slurred Speech, Insulin Resistant, Headache, Heart Flutters. History Of Lupus, Hypothyroid. Treatment?
I am having dizzy spells and sometimes have issues talking such as finding the right word or slurring my speech. I have autoimmune diseases ( lupus , hypothyroid , raynauds, sjogrens) and I m also insulin resistant. My brother was recently diagnoses with addisons disease . My doctor ignores me about the dizzy spells and speech issues. I also wake every morning with a headache and feel pressure in my head and have heart flutters all day.

hi,
your dizziness and slurred speech may be due to blockage of blood vessels in brain, which might have been caused due to heart flutters. get an CT done to identify them and PET may be identify functionality of those areas. kindly see a neurologist for further evaluation.
wishing you good health
