Vertigo / Dizziness :: Unbalanced Feet - Dizziness While Walking And Standing
I have dizziness everyday while walking, standing as well as feeling off balance, unsteady on my feet like I am gonna fall over. I have had my ears checked by an ENT doctor in 2014 and he said I had meniere's disease so he treated it as that but medicine didn't help so went to another ENT doctor in 2015 who said I don't have meniere's disease but have hearing loss in both ears and did a test on my vestibular function which he said was normal so he referred me to a neurologist and I went and had an MRI done which was normal as well. I have had blood work done in November last year and my white blood count was a little high but not concerning and everything else was normal....no diabetes. Also had a stress test done on heart and was normal. I am at my wits end with this cause I don't know what's going on. I plan to see an eye doctor soon. Oh and I was diagnosed with anxiety 4 months ago but this dizziness and off balance feeling has been going on for 2 years now. I am on blood pressure medicine too. don't know what else to do. Does anyone have these same symptoms ?
View 28 RepliesChronic Fatigue Syndrome :: Horrible Headaches Standing For Long Time
I was wondering if anyone else has this problem. If I stand for a long time or sit in a chair without head support, I end up with a horrible headache. But if I can lie down or sit in a chair with head support so that I'm not having to carry the weight of my head, I don't get headaches. Anyone else?

I went to the primary doctor and he gave me a diuretic and said it's the fibromyalgia. I ended up in ER for chest pains in February so I didn't know if it was some relation to the situation. I now got into the Rheumatologist on Friday and she says it has nothing to do with the Fibro. Any input anyone?
View 5 RepliesFibromyalgia Syndrome :: Low Estrogen Testosterone For A Long Time?
Having recently been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia I changed Gp practices. My new GP just looked back at my notes and was in disgust. She said my estrogen testosterone and Insulin look like they have been low for a long time.. yet I've always been told my bloods are fine. She took more bloods and is going to have a look back at my notes. I'm just 30 and my symptoms have been going on 3 years. Extreme fatigue, constant pain/cramps in my legs hips and back, leg and arm weakness, my back completely goes, weight gain impossible to lose. A Lot of hair loss, anxiety, ibs, also had a breast infection 10 months. I'm now guessing I don't have fibro?
View 4 RepliesSitting, Standing, And Walking - Sudden Dizziness
I don't know exactly where to start or how to describe my issue, but I know something isn't right. 2 days ago I woke up as I normally do from a good night's sleep and immediately knew something wasn't right. I was feeling faint and dizzy, but it wasn't a constant feeling that wouldn't go away. I would have these episodes about every 5 or 6 seconds apart from one another. 2 days later (today) it hasn't gone away and it's actually getting worse. It feels like I'm getting hit with a hammer and that's when everything starts to go faint and an instant dose of dizziness smacks me in the head. I honestly feel like I'm going to just kill over and pass out, but I don't. after a few seconds it stops, but then after I take a few more steps it does it all over again. This happens whether I'm standing up, walking, sitting down or even laying down. It just won't stop. Prior to this, there was a week where I got about 5 or 6 major migraines in one week. Not sure if this is related or not? I have no ins.
View 1 RepliesHip Replacement :: Pain From Sitting To Standing And Walking
I'm 27, I got ejected out of a car at 17. I broke my hip and shattered my pelvis. My first surgery was to reconstruct my pelvis than a year later I had a total hip replacement. I hurt every single day, the worst pain is from sitting to standing and walking that initial step on my bad hip is excruciating. I don't take pain meds anymore if anyone has any tip for pain relief.
View 19 RepliesHeel Pain / Hurt After Standing Or Walking - Patellar Tendinopathy
For several years now both my heels hurt after standing or walking for a little while. After a couple of days rest I am able to walk for maybe 30 mins before it becomes unbearable and standing seems to be worse. I have seen podiatrists, followed stretching plans, bought new shoes according to my gait analysis, customised insoles and the job lot. I was wrongly diagnosed with Achilles Tendonitis and Plantar Fasciitis which were cleared after an MRI and ultrasound scan. No heel spurs or cushion problems etc and back MRI scan has ruled out root nerve issues although a nerve conduction study presented some mild root nerve S1 weakness. A little further info is that my left foot is significantly worse than my right and my left knee has been diagnosed with patellar tendinopathy.
I'm in IT and do spend a lot of time at a desk but get out to the gym a couple of times a week for some light cycling and stretching. I have found that my core is pretty weak and the likely cause of my Patellar Tendonitis. I'm now working on core stability and looking to fix any muscular imbalance.
My consultant is stumped and does not know whats causing the pain so I asked her to rule out Baxters nerve compression which she is looking into.
I would really like to get any help with this as it's been causing me pain for several years and not allowing me to get on with day to day activities as I can't walk or stand for short periods of time.

View 1 RepliesPainful Feet When Walking Into The Sea
For the past few years whenever I go in the sea (when it's very cold) I get quite a severe pain in my feet - like an intense ache. It eventually fades away but it's pretty unpleasant! I'm guessing this is something to do with poor circulation, but I don't know anyone else this happens to, and whilst not exceptionally active I'm not very unfit.

View 46 RepliesNorethisterone :: Sore Feet ?
I've been on Norethisterone for a couple 6-8 weeks. Don't know if its coincidence or not but i've had sore feet since i've been on them, painful bones,not swollen or bloated,just sore to walk or touch. I'm on the pills for heavy duty constant periods. It's been great not bleeding all the time and i feel much happier, scared to come off them as I know I'll flood as soon as I stop and get moody and depressed but scared to stay on them in case I get blood clots or something terrible like that. Has anyone else experienced that?
View 1 RepliesSwollen Hands And Feet, Sore Throat - Lymph Nodes/glands
My friend is staying with me and is feeling really ill and dizzy, his hands and feet are swollen, his neck is swollen and so is his face. His glands and lymph nodes are really swollen. He is really fatigued and has a sore throat. mostly it sounds like Flu symptoms apart from the swelling so can anyone help with an accurate diagnosis, he had his tonsils removed so it isn't tonsillitis.
I gave him co-codamol 30mg/500mg and ibuprofen 600mg tabs, he feels a little better but the swelling hasn't gone down much at all.
Parasitic Worms? Itchy Anus And Pull Out A Feet Long Worm
last week, i felt itchiness in my anus. I felt for what was making it itchy because it was like something was moving, like a bug or something. Then i pulled out a worm that was about a foot long. it didn't have any 'sections', it was pinkish white and its ends were pointed, like a sharpened pencil. I then took mebendazole (antiox), all 100 ml of the liquid. After that, i had diarrhea for 4 days and a mild fever the day after taking the medication. The itching stopped, however. On the 5th day, my stool became solid again, BUT i noticed that i am starting to itch down there again. I took a stool test and they found that there were no parasites. The itching persisted so i took another 100ml dose of mebendazole. I noticed that when i sat in the toilet, a dead worm that was very small and whitish/transparent ish (like what pinworms look like?) was found. I'm not sure if it was a worm or my imagination because it was very small and hard to decipher since it was floating in the water. I'm not sure what to do now coz doctors are saying i tested negative for parasites, but i still feel the same kind of itching. I already took mebendazole last night but the itching is still present. what should i do?
View 1 RepliesRestless Legs Syndrome :: Feet Jerk While Sleeping
I'm wondering if anybody else out there is affected by RLS in the same way I am. It's very specific. Only when I'm falling asleep, my foot will jerk, sometimes rapidly, followed by the whole leg making a violent jerk. There is no sleeping thru that. Once it starts, I know I'm in for a long night because it does not stop. Even if it does, then the other leg will start doing it. (There is that creepy-crawly sensation a microsecond before the jerks, but I can't stop it from happening.) This started in the early '80's with mild episodes 2 or 3 times a week but has increased strongly over the years.
I have incredible empathy for anyone suffering from this affliction / curse and pray daily that the true cause will soon be identified.
Suboxone For Fibromyalgia Syndrome?
So yesterday I went to see the RA and it appeared as if he cared. He explained that I was severe with FIBRO and that there isn't too much that he could do. He upped my LYRICA to 200 mg (not sure why as it gives me more issues than taking pain away) . He also suggested that I go to a Fibro Clinic in UF , some where in the panhandle of Florida, I can not do it (Finances, Insurance, I don't drive because of LYRICA) . He also gave me a referral for SUBOXONE This is a medicine that they usually give for people who have had problems with pain pills.The RA explained how he just read an article in how this could help me. Has any one else experienced this? Did it work?

Selenium deficiency is considered by some naturopathic doctors the key to Fibromyalgia and CFS.
Some even relate it with animal “Nutritional muscular dystrophy” AKA “White muscle disease”.
