need help!

I apologize ahead of time if I post in the wrong forum. I have been expiriencing some syptoms now for a year post partum c section. I have vertigo,dizziness, fluid moving feeling in my ears & eyes. I also feel immense amount of pressure in my eyes at times its so bad that I feel disoriented and sensitive to light. I will be doing something and then all of a sudden it will feel like im spinning and im going to fall over. Ive had problems with my balance and often feel like I can never get full amount of sleep. I will also wake up with severely blurred vision. I feel as if i'm loosing my health :( and I can't even have a normal life anymore.

It still helps, IMHO, to get an eye exam. I know my neurologist does a *sort of* eye exam, but the eye doc frankly does it better - and they eye doc can pick up the neurological stuff too, plus muscular and other issues.

My neurologist said I had a little issue, but my eye doc said it was more major and sent me to an orthoptist. When my neuro does the similar test, I am not as focused on an object as I am in an eye doc test so the results in his office were not the same. So I was able to do exercises and make some changes. In my case it is a mix of muscular and other issues.

Have you gone for an eye exam?

The pressure in your eyes could be glaucoma.

I would also go to your family doctor about the vertigo and other symptoms. They can refer you to a specialist if needed
