Dizzy spells and feeling lightheaded

[littleomelette]

Hi there.

I have had strange dizzy spells and a feeling of light headedness for a couple of days now.  

I feel as if I may pass out, but never do.  I was wondering if this is anything serious?

I am 25 years old, and generally fit and healthy.  I am getting my eyes tested next week as I have been straining them sat at my computer at work and when driving.  Also, I have this strange squelchy noise in my ears, a bit like after you've been swimming and you get water in your ears.  I don't know if these would be causing it or whether it could be something else?

Any advice would be appreciated.  Many thanks.

I forgot to mention on top of that, I have been extremely busy buying my first house, my dad is ill and I have been going for job interviews.  I don't know if this would affect the condition.

I am constantly really tired and yawning.

Thanks.

It sounds like it could be stress. I would consider trying meditation or hobbies that relax you. If it continues or get any worse, consider seeing a physician.

Thanks for your advice.

I saw my GP and she said it was a viral infection that is taking time to clear as I seem to be stressed and worn down.

I think a nice break is in order.

Take care x

Hey.
for some reason i've been experiencing the same symptoms.
Lightheaded, Dizzy a bit, Ears Ringing, Stomache feels a bit odd, and the sparkles in my eyes when i stare into a bright light or the sky. It is very odd. I went to my doctor about 3 months ago, & they said it could just be a sinus infection..but it just doesnt seem like it could be...I've felt like this for about almost 5 months now & its driving me NUTS!. I wish it would just go away, & i could be myself again. Any suggestions what this could be?
Please reply. Thank You

Yeah. Lately i've been thinking it could be some what of depression. I've been feeling like i want to just get away from home and everyone. Still the same symptoms. Sometimes i feel like im just out of it and dont know whats wrong. I really wanna know whats wrong, like i dont feel like im gonna faint, i just feel really odd. Thanks for writing to my post.
Hopefully i find out whats wrong soon.

Did your symptoms subside yet?

I have been having the same symptoms for over 10 years now. My doc has put me on anti-convulsant meds, but they dont' work at all. I have had every test done and everything comes back fine. I just got my license taken too because I have no control of these dizzy spells. It really takes a lot out of you and you must feel exhausted afterwards. I get 10-15 over the course of a day. How about you?
