One more thing, juices with natural sugar seems to help for some as well.  We found a cousin who had identical symptoms and that seemed to help her and with my wife her CBC came back fine but her sugar levels showed lower than normal.  She is in otherwise great health, 115 lbs, 50 years old, looks 40. My wife just mentioned she craved sugar yesterday and this morning while it was all going on, and she said she was considering asking me for chocolate chip cookies.

My wife had this and although the symptoms aren't a migraine, it was.  The symptoms started on the second day of her period, which is often when she gets migraines which was why she was open to trying a migraine medication (Relpax 40mg).  It doesn't explain the cause of the migraine, but she is looking back to normal now after a tough ride with this.  I feel for you all, good luck!

Symptoms:

Significant nausea
Eyes moving back and forth
Starts off by feeling you are on a merry-go-round, spinning, spinning
High anxiety
Tired
Pain over her left eye, this pain ended after we did the migraine medication trial
(no light sensitivity and no significant traditional migraine symptoms otherwise)
Trouble breathing when it is at its worst, hyperventilation, she called it “anxious breathing,” and “about to throw up breathing”

Facial grimace, forehead scrunched up
Feeling clammy, sweaty chest, hot and cold
Dry mouth
Does not want to be touched
Laying down worse than sitting up or standing up
Laying back worse than sitting up or standing up
Very tired and wanted to sleep and getting up and walking around was stabilizing
Doing things was better than not doing things

It was very cyclical.  First spinning with eyes moving back and forth, then that stops, then immediately the nausea, then when that lessens the clamminess immediately and then the cycle starts over again.  About 4 minutes per cycle and it goes over and over.  The more she was up and moving around the slower the cycles, if she was sitting down the cycles were less (more if she laid back at all) and if she was up moving around the cycles didn’t happen but she still was very nauseous, anxious/scared (paranoid, afraid it would not stop or that it would happen every morning and afraid it would get worse… just many things she typically wouldn’t do or say), not her self though all of this.

Hi.  I'm a 29 yr. old male who has been dealing with this since I was 24 (I didn't have insurance for the first 4 yrs.).  I really understand feeling like your fading away,..  like a ghost,..  like if a strong enough wind came it could blow you away at times.  I know how you feel and you are NOT CRAZY.  My X-Ray's didn't show any head or neck damage either, but I had feelings of concussion.  I saw a chiropractor who did their test and said I did have neck problems for sure.  After visit him for awhile it took the room spinning dizziness away, but it didn't take the concussion feeling away so I sought other help.  My family doctor told me that I may have Occipital Neuralgia.. so far that seems to be in the right direction.  I am currently going through Physical Therapy and so far so good.  After just two days of keeping my neck still most of the day (He advised me not to move my neck alot, or exercise) I already have better mornings.  But still haven't gotten rid of that "ghost" feeling.  Pray for me and i'll do the same for you.  YOUR NOT ALONE.  God bless you ; )

I am a 41 yr old woman who for the last 3 wks have had diarrhea (every morning about 7:30am or so). Along with this having nausia & feeling like I'm gonna throw up but don't. Accompanied by these symptoms is severe neck pain & lower back pain with achey shoulders and achiness down my right arm...when sitting in my car & sometimes on my couch I'm feeling dizziness...when looking around things seem sereal and I generally feel tired. The dizziness comes on throughout the day...the diarrhea mostly in the morning but all bowel movements are loose & my stomache area and tailbone area & neck are sooo sore. I've been seen in the ER twice in 3 wks & 2 followups with my doctor. We are waiting on lab work to return but in the mean time I've missed 2.5 days of work & asking people to drive me around cause I'm afraid to drive. I have 3 older chuldren & my tubes were tied 16 yrs ago...they have chkd to see if Im preg twice & say Im not...took xrays of neck & back & say nothing. All of this happening is bringing on my anxiety...and yet everyone is continuing to point in the diection of that...It pisses me off because the anxiety doesnt come on till after Im in so much pain. Let me add that I've been having night sweats and a year ago I fell on my tailbone which is I belive where the initial neck & back pain stem from. My last period was next to nothing...and usually it lasts 4 days. I'm frusterated, annoyed & concerned that we can't figure this out.

I have been increasingly sicker with headaches nausea feeling faint muscular weakness and pain, feeling swelled up, very ill. I was diagnosed with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia. I also have a sliding hernia that causes bad problems once in a while. There is no cure for chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia. Two days ago all my blood tests including liver function, kidney and proteins in the blood come up fantastic and well. My eeg showed a light hyperactivity and my heart is extremely healthy. So I am the healthiest fibromyalgic in the world. I can't function most of the time, I get panic attacks just because I am so sick. I am not depressed and my diet is healthy. Doctor don't find an answer and it is extremely frustrating. I have spent a fortune in tests and looking for help. I live alone and there is no one to help me. I am 64 and this started 12 years ago. I am less and less mobile each day, yet all the tests show I have nothimg. I used to be extremely active, a professional singer and worked hard all my life now I can hardly do anything. I am still great looking but cannot even think of starting a relationship.because of this my life is basically over.

Try getting an Energy/Armor Life Technology Bracelet...they are said to have success in blocking out negitive energy that is put into the air by electronics like cell phones and other electrial equipment....its worth a shot and it only cost 20 dollars...
