What Causes Dizziness, Disorientation And Confusion In A Child?

My 11 year old son has been feeling dizzy in this last week and a half. He is 84 lbs. and 4 10 . He says that when he gets dizzy he becomes confused and disoriented. He gets fuzzy or blurry vision. He does get really bad headaches that I believe are migrains. What could the dizziness be? This dizzy spell that he just got the headache didnt come till after he was dizzy for a while. Can you give me some suggestions of what I can give him to make the dizziness go away and what this could be from. Thank you!

Hi,

Welcome to HCM,

I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

In my opinion , dizziness could be due to eye( errors of refraction) , ear( bppv, meniers disease, otitis media,vestibular neuronitis). any fluctuations in Bp, any fluctuation in blood sugar or electrolyte disturbances.kindly evaluate with blood tests, ent examination to rule out d cause.



Hope, I have answered your query, all the best, take care.
