cloudy head, dizzy spells

by dictheriller, Sep 12, 2009 08:49AM
For the last year I have been having mild to severe dizzy spells and they seem to be getting worse. My head always seems cloudy I guess is a good term. Even on a good day my head feels bad like it is not getting enough oxygen to clear it up. Lately I can't even work or do most anything except sit around and try not to move my head much so I don't get dizzy and fall down. I did notice the other day when I had a severe dizzy spell I looked in the mirror and my pupils were very tiny. I have never seen them like that before. I wake up in my sleep with dizzy spells that are turning my world upside down.
Any idea on what kind of doctor I should go see?

Hi,

I'm sorry you are not feeling well.  You should probably see a neurologist or otoneurologist affiliated with a major hospital.

I see an oto-neurologist for my dizzy spells. They should do a work up  that may include a MRI and/or MRA, doppler on your neck arteries, ear/vestibular function tests and blood tests.

There could be a 100 reasons for dizzy spells from the minor to the serious.

Good luck, let us know how it goes.
