Need Help

[JenBo]

It started in March of 2007.  While driving to Springfield I felt something happen in the back of my throat.  I started choking, coughing and feeling like I was going to throw up.  It lasted about 15 minutes.  I finally relaxed and it stopped.  Then about a month later I felt dizzy going into a store.  Then approximately two months later starting really feeling ill.  I am so tired and worn out.  I have head and ear pressure, feeling nauseated all the time, neck really hurts.  Feels like there is a lump in my throat when I swallow.  I will all of a sudden feel ice cold, my feet and hands are cold then my teeth start chattering.  My husband tells me I am warm though.  Then all of a sudden I will fall asleep.  It takes me a whole day to recover from this happening.  I did have an Anterior Cervical Dissectomy on my C6-C7 vertebrae with a plate and four screws still in there.  I am wondering if anyone else has had this surgery and has any of these symptoms.  Please respond as soon as possible.  I can't get any answers from any doctors at this point.  They all tell me I am fine.  Thanks

Have you had ct scans done since these symptoms started? What about bloodwork...thyroid, Iron, etc.???

I am not sure how anything ties in for you. Have you had a test checking you for vestibular problems that could cause the nauseau and dizziness. Have they checked you for infection? What kind of doctors have you seen, maybe they aren't the right ones. I don't know anything about the surgery so I cannot say much. You should get your thyroid checked though also and make sure this isn't causing any problems. If you give more info, many on here might be able to offer differing but helpful opinions. Hope you will be well. Peace
