Pain

Have a question,,, I`m feeling light headed sometimes and feels like a little bump in the back of the head near the base of my skull, where everything seems to go into the skull. Went to the Doctor 3 weeks ago and said I have Sinitius, He said had fluid in my ears. Gave me a Z pak and things seemed to get better, no more weird feeling in the back of the anymore but still felt like ears were still bad, Went back to him and he said ears are still red and gave me Cipro, then it seemed like feeling in the back of the head came back... During this whole deal I have been noticing wavy lines in my vision. Any budy ever hear of anything like this???? Please help driving me nuts,,, can only think of it has a brain Tumor

The only way I can relate an ear infection with a lump on the back of your head would be if the lump was an enlarged lymph node. Without asking you more questions, I cannot be sure what the visual symptoms mean. If this persists, or if you develop new symptoms you contact your doctor immediately. Also, if you have not seen your eye doctor recently, it would be reasonable to have a follow-up visit. Good luck.

You should check into the pain and headaches that those with CFS, CFIDS and the 'gulf war syndrome' vets have.  May I ask what kind of work you do, and if you also have fatigue and when it started, if so?

Do you have blood in your urine and if so, check to see if you have too many immature red blood cells and at what rate you are making rate blood cells:  the reticulocyte count.  With these two things going on, suspect autoimmune hemolytic anemia from 2-butoxyethanol poisoning.  (Believe me the regular blood info will look OK!  This is truly a mystery)

You will notice that there are lots of ways a person's body 'complains' about too much of a chemical exposure, and ear problems is one of them.

At the base of the skull and back of the head pain?  Is that in the area of the pituitary or some other master gland?  This chemical I share on does things to the glandular system too:  disruption of the endocrine system and it shows up in lots of ways:  high or low blood sugar; high or low blood pressure, etc.  Do you also have headaches, the sharp,stabbing pain kind???

It just seems like I feel really goofy all the time, Sometimes I feel like I have pressure inside my head. Almost feels like I have some kind of buzz. I just feels really weird. Sometimes head aches but I `ll take an aspirin and seems like there gone. Just feels like tingling sensation too sometimes
