What Causes Fatigue, Dizziness And Lightheadedness After An Upper Endoscopy?

Hi, I had an upper endoscopy a week ago. Following the procedure I had pressure where my stomach and esphogas meet. It went away when my medication was increased. I still felt fatigue, the next day I experienced dizziness and light headness, and over whelming fullness which was diagnosed as vertigo. Within a few days later the fullness and appetite was back to normal. But I was still dizzy and begun experiencing ear pressure that got gradually worse with a headache. Yesterday I went back to the doctor they said it is a tension headache. They checked my ears and sinus and saw no infection. I felt completely fine prior to the endoscopy with the exception of acid reflux. As a result of this I have not been to work in a week. Do I need to be concern?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the symptoms that you have may not be due to any disease but this could be due to apprehensiveness, try to low down the stress, no need to worry about this, if you have given medicines for acid reflux then continue this, if not then better to start this and best option is "Tab Omeprazole 40 mg with Domperidone 30 mg" once in day at evening time, hope this information helps, take care.
I find this answer helpful
