Dizzy

So I am going on my 5th month of being Dizzy, Confused, Lack of Concentration, Depressed, Anxious, and Memory Loss.  I have been in the Hospital 8 times on the Psych Ward.  I have been thrown through the list of seemingly Mis-Diagnosis's.  At this point I am stuck at Home, cannot drive, Work or hardly leave the house.  I am desperate and it appears that the Doctors have given up.  Where does someone turn when nothing makes sence?

labyrinthitis... look up the symptons online... I have had this since November.  It has gotten better.  The doctor told me that moving around and doing things will help get my balance back but I have also suffered with anxiety and panic attacks through it all because I felt so isolated.  I have learned how to deal with the anxiety through CDs I have listened to that tell you how to talk your way out of it and they have helped so much!  I had read online that a girl had the dizziness for 7 months and then finally went for reflexology and she said it helped alot..... i dont know if i'll ever be back to normal but I'm able to go to work and function...

right there with you, I was just in the psych ward last week because of anxiety, and you want to know what i dont get? why do the doctors not take us seriously and automatically assume its an "emotional" disorder? i mean i thought maybe if i went to the emergency room that i would maybe get into an ENT faster, and they just keep pumping me with anxiety pills, so im right there with you!
