Hi peeps. I found this site on Google while trying to research some help on what's happening to me. I wonder if any 1 has been through what I'm currently going through.
7 weeks ago I was driving and my body went into shakes and panic attacks, my first ever time. There was no reason for it, it just came out of the blue.
I went to the hospital and was told I'm all clear and that it was panic disorder.
When this happened, it made me very light headed and my balance abit wobbly. Which left me in bed for the 1st 4 weeks feeling like I was just going to constantly pass out.
After 4 trips to the Dr and 4 weeks in bed, I was put on sertraline, and kept getting told the light heasedness will dissappear.
We are now on week 7, I'm still very light headed, to the point I can't work still as I drive children for a living.( I tried going back to work but it just made me feel very poorly driving due to my head) I feel light headed from the minute I wake up until I go to bed. I've got a bout of tinnitus ( which I think has been caused by sertraline) my ears feel blocked up just behind my ears, bit like a pressure feeling( had them checked twice and they are fine) and I still feel like I'm going to pass out alot. The Dr has given me some proponol to take along with sertraline but all that does is slow my heart rate, it doesn't help with this light headedness in any way shape or form.
The Dr's are repeatedly telling me its just in my head and my balance isn't coordinated and I need to get out more and exercise, which I have done for 3 weeks now and still nothing.
Has any 1 else suffered with anything like this. I'd be great full for any advice.
