Dizzy And Off Balance With Vitamin D Deficiency?
I am 29 year old female and for the past 2 years I have been feeling off balance and sometime dizzy, but mostly off balance.
I have went too 2 different Neurologist, A E.N.T, and A Cardiologist. I have endless blood work, A CT of the brain, and a MRI of the brain. Everything was always NORMAL! Once I was anemic and my b12 was low which is normal now.
This past weekend I was dizzy, and I got scared, I went to the ER which was nothing but a waste of time, they just told me sometimes people get dizzy and that's all.
I went to a doctor I had seen before but not alot she had looked at the blood test that one of the Neurologist had order and found out I was anemic and had a b12 deficiency and re-order blood work so she knew I had been having this problem for quite some time.
I went and did my blood work the next day she called me and told me that everything was back but my VIT-D but everything was ok, she said my b12 was on the low end of normal and she was gonna give me a shot once a week in case my body was just needing more than normal. I said thanks and went on my way at work. I was truly starting to think I was crazy.
The next day while at work, she called me again to tell me my Vit-D was low. It was a 19. And that is why I was getting Dizzy and Off Balance. I can't tell you how happy I was to finally have a answer!
So my questions are:
1.) Did anyone here get dizzy or off balance with a Vitamin D Deficiency?
2.) How long to I feel better? I am taking Vitamin D 50,000 units once a week for 8 weeks then going to re-check...

View 2 RepliesMenopause :: Dizziness / Off Balance / Benign Positional Vertigo
Went to dr last Thursday, he always maintains that my dizziness/off balance problem is due to anxiety. I told the dr I have been speaking to others on this forum who have similar symptoms and problems with their balance and it has to be recognised as part of meno.
After a good chat with the GP, he read through my blood tests which were done in July this year, he said that my estrogen was so low that he would consider me now menopausal, estrogen was less than 70 (whatever that means) fsh 76.
Anyway, he said that the menopause sometimes causes some women to develop benign positional vertigo and that it should settle with time. He said normally by the age of 55 things would be better....I'm only 51, will be 52 in Feb don't think I could suffer this for a long period
Dr had taken more bloods as I asked for progesterone to be checked as well as estrogen
I've made another appointment to discuss the results but another dr told me briefly over the phone that the estrogen and progesterone have both came back low even though I've been taking livial HRT for 3 months.
I went on the internet last night browsing looking at hormone levels and was redirected to another website as I typed in dizziness and OMG I've been in such a state since
I'm wondering if any of you ladies can help if you Google MdDS, it's a balance condition and please tell me that my balance problems will be hormone related
I'm staggering around today balance terrible and feel woozy just unbalanced.

View 21 RepliesMenopause / Hypothyroidism :: Dizzy With Hot Flashes
I have been post menopausal for 3 yrs now. I am also hypothyroid and my thyroid levels have been off for a couple months and we are trying to get those back to normal. In the past 8 months I've been having dizziness and my ENT says I have vestibular dysfunction and will be starting rehab therapy to help with it. It's a feeling of rocking sensation when I'm sitting, standing, walking, I have it quite a bit. In the past month or two i've noticed when I have some hot flashes and night sweats, not everytime but more than before I will get very dizzy and off balance as the hot flash is coming on, sometimes they only last a few seconds, but today it seemed to go on for mins, so of course my anxiety set it. Now that the anxiety is here the dizziness continues just at a lower level. i had to take a xanax to get myself to calm down. I used to have just the normal hot flash and then this started, also the flashed are more intense sometime to the point of just plain soaked, this happen during the day and a lot at night, my night sweats have gotten to the point where i sometimes have to change clothes.

View 6 RepliesL4-L5 Microdiscectomy - Still Swelling Of Knees And Losing Balance
The excruciating sciatic pain is gone but I am left unable to walk w/o a walker or sometimes I can use a cane. My back, at the incision is painful and weeping slightly. My R. knee hurts like all hell , my R. hip has pain but is somewhat better. I am afraid to stay alone for risk of falling, as I tend to still lose my balance. Both of my ankles are heavily swollen to a point of being unable to put shoes on. I know that the muscular atrophy didn't occur overnight as well as, well most of my symptoms. So tell me, anybody who has been here, is this normal,? Should I expect up and down "victories" as I have described?, I know that I am young in my recovery but does this seem to be following a normal path of recuperation ?, or could something else be wrong? The Dr. never did mention what to expect post op.
View 2 RepliesParkinson Rule Out - Still Walking And Balance Difficulties - What It Could Be?
My grandmother has serious difficulty walking, only being able to make small, shuffling steps with a walker and when someone is holding her. She was originally diagnosed with parkinson's, but lacked other symptoms like tremors, cognitive issues, etc and did not respond to levodopa. MRI and not responding to treatment ruled out Parkinsons, but doctors are unsure what she has. What could cause the symptoms and the trouble with walking?
Specifically, she cannot balance standing upright and most hold on to something. When walking, she can only make small shuffling steps, she sometimes fails to lift her feet off the floor. She can move her leg fine when sitting or lying down. She also feels heavy pain.
This has been leaving all of us confused as a lot of conditions (like Parkinson's) have been ruled out, but.. what could it be?

Some of you might have read my ongoing battle with constant dizziness/lightheadedness and general feeling of being off balance along with the usual symptoms of anxiety thrown in for good measure!
I thought after having to clear CT scans, seeing an ENT doctor twice, having an echocardiogram and wearing a heart monitor for 24hrs and having a scan on my neck and numerous other checks and bloods that I would start to feel better knowing that everything is checking out to be fine but unfortunately not it's just not going away just when I think that things are improving and I have a good day it comes back and bites me in the backside today being a good example I've felt OK all day then go to bath my kids and bang it hits me, I go all dizzy and my body feels very heavy and like I'm being pulled to the right all the time then I go into panic mode and worry about what is happening to me, how I feel and what if I pass out, I'm so sick of worrying about what's going on all the time it's taking over my life!
I also had a call from the docs about some bloods I had done last week they want to see me so wondering if anything has showed up on them!
