Help Please

   I was wondering if you could help me figure out was is going on or give me some insight. Iam a 28/m I have been for last year or so periodically throughout every day feel very off balance or  like iam on a ship/ have no appetite. Sometimes driving a vehicle will make it better/ however sometimes it triggers it, and sitting/lying still sometimes helps. Usually  get a headache or feel pressure in the front of my head. In the morning it seems to be the worst when waking up. However the most disturbing is i would say about 4 times a year out of no were get these very intense feeling of falling to right side/ lightheaded and get very flush/hot in the face with a rapid heart beat. Usually last a couple minutes. Also walking, doing daily items like cleaning etc, cant do or do in phases cause feel off balance/sick. Had Mri of brain and everything was ok, had a retention cyst in sinus and a white spot in the frontal lobe which was told wouldnt be causing my symptoms but have a future mri to see if ant more spots apear (MS) Blood work was ok except high cholesterol/ elevated liver enzymes. I GUESS WOULD LIKE SOME INSIGHT INTO THIS AS IT IS EFFECTING MY LIFE, WHAT COULD BE GOING ON INNEAR EAR, ANXIETY, SOMETHING MISSED ON TESTS, PLEASE HELP ANY SUGGESTIONS OR IDEAS

It would be so easy to blame the "chemicals", that way we could have a answer right now. But then why the dizziness and all the other funky stuff going on?  I sure wished I had a answer, but I do know that sooner or later all of the above go's away. So, the answer is Why it's even there to begin with.  And that answer only you have. But I can tell you there is someone on here that can offer you alot of good advise. JSGeare's the name. Track him down on here, easy to find, he's on almost every post. I know after a good chat with him you will be on the right track.

Good luck to you, and please join the forum, it's easier and offer's so much.

My first question to you would be, Do you feel anxious? Anything going on in your life causing any anxiety? Other than these symptoms your talking about.  Vertigo (dizziness) can be caused by a number of things. Sinusitis, inner ear, are just a few. You say high cholesterol, How high?  Elevated liver enzymes ? Do you take alot of tylenol?  I take it your already being assesed by a dr.? That's good, hopefully he or she will get to the bottom of this. Right now they are taking your through the rule out process.  Hang in there.  Let us know what you find out...
