What Could Cause Nausea, Altered Sense Of Taste, Persistent Headaches And Dizziness?

Hello, I have weird symptoms that I first thought were related to my stomach so I went to a GI who performed tests such as endoscopy, ultrasound, CT scan with contrast & blood tests. Everything came back negative. My symptoms are unexplained nausea, sensitivity to food smells, changes in taste (things are too bland or I can taste every flavor/not enjoy anything anymore), new persistent headaches especially in the morning, increased severity of vertigo/dizziness, loss of appetite/only able to eat certain foods because I lost interest in many foods. I have tried many medications for nausea and sensitivity to smell and the only thing that helped was CBD oil multiple times a day. what could be happening and who should I consult?

Hi,

Your symptoms may present in many diseases but here I have mentioned possible causes
1. a migrainous headache
2. intracranial space-occupying lesions
3. cyclic vomiting syndrome
4. narcolepsy
5. major depressive disorder
6. chronic fatigue syndrome etc.

Please get it done serum electrolytes, complete blood picture, urine examination, CT/MRI brain.

Use tablet Ondansetron. Cannabis oil may cause side effects like nausea vomiting.

Please consult your physician, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
