For months now I've been tingling weak legs, lightheaded, dizziness, nausea and headaches. I've lost close to 50 pounds and generally feel like shit.
I've had acid reflux for 13 years and it's become worse lately.
I saw a cardiologist who gave me an ECG, a heart echo, a 24 hour Halter monitor, a 24 hour blood pressure cuff and a stress test. All test were normal.
I went to a dentist for tooth pain which turned out to be a gum infection and she prescribed antibiotics which have helped.
I'm still having these episodes of dizziness, lightheadeness, nausea, headaches and fatigue.
My doctor refused to send me for a CT scan saying there's no reason for it and when I asked for more blood work he said my blood tests from March were fine therefore he didn't need to see another set of tests.
My doctor wants me to tart taking Paxil 10mg once per day.
I don't think I'm having anxiety since the episodes come out of nowhere. I'm not hyper ventilating, I don't have a racing heart or any of the traditional anxiety or panic symptoms.
I still believe this is all related to my acid reflux, but my Prevacid isn't doing a good job anymore. Taking two Prevaid made the symptoms worse.
I'm not sure what to do but I sure as hell don't want to start taking Paxil because I've read nothing but bad things about it.
