Light Headedness, Dizziness, Nausea. Negative Pregnancy Test. What Could Be The Problem?
I am healthy 29 year old stay-at-home mom of two small boys. For past month I ve experienced light-headedness for no apparent reason, it comes and goes right away, first time I felt dizzy I almost lost balance and held onto dresser; other times have been light dizziness , sometimes feeling a LITTLE nauseous. Has happened about 3-4 times week. I took a pregnancy test (off-shelf test, and it was negative). Today, I bent down to pick something up, and a shadow on PHERIPHERAL vision of left eye appeared--it took about five minutes for the shadow pheripheral area to disappear, felt a little nauseous also. What could be problem?

dear friend, welcome to HCM.
if pregnancy is ruled out, it points to back of the brain circulation problem (VBI)
pl. see your physician to rule it out. physical exam and if the same suspicion is made , a MRI+MRA brain would be planned.
actual exam may offer different advice, though.
pl. get checked and pl. keep me posted on the issues.
good luck.
