I wonder whats going on with you, you are either flaring or your body has picked up some bug?

I know you said you have been really tired, and with that, the nausea and dizziness, sometimes thats how I feel if someone around me is sick with something and my body starts revving up into a flare.

If it was just the nausea or nausea and stomach upset then I'd be inclined to say it could be the Plaquenil, its not uncommon for it to cause a few problems like that for a couple of weeks.

Whatever it is I hope you can get some rest and feel better soon style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif

Sorry to hear about the dizzy's. It could be any number of things, but may be your body telling you to slow down; or the precursor of a flare; beginning of a bug; who knows. But if it hasn't gotten better soon, you should probably call your doctor, especially if it's new to you.

Have you searched this site on dizziness and vertigo? There's been quite a bit written about it that might interest you. Do take care of yourself.

style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/Thanx.gif I'm not sure what is either though i have been feeling kinda fluish lately and it has been going around our house so duh maybe that is what it is...or maybe its a fibro flare and not the other stuff...arrrgh why is this so on going...

i will definetly search this site for vertigo and dizziness my ent once wanted me to have table tilt test i kind of was scared of it because my mother told me about hers and passing out eeek...has anyone heard of one of those tests???

but anyway thanks for replying it helps... style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/scaredy.gif

Andi,

I had the tilt test but had no problems with it. Also, a battery of tests checking out my inner ear and they were a piece of cake. The "worst" one was where you lie down and they put cold air or water in one ear at a time and then measure your eye movements. The reason it was bad for me is because it set off my vertigo.

My problem ended up being a lesion on the brainstem which required surgery. I hope all goes well for you, but it may be something as simple as that bug, or even an inner ear problem that can be fixed relatively easily. Take care and I hope this helps.

Oh yes, I am always dizzy and it is almost everyday. I am not preganant. I thought this is one of prednisone's side effects? Am i right?

I'm not on prednisone though I had been on it for a one time dose a long time ago and it was a taper dose so I don't remember the side effects :shrugs: sorry watslove that I couldn't be of more help...

Hi, I too suffer from dizzy and nausea. My doctor keeps checking my glucose level and thyroid. But they
have been ok. It is very much an annoying problem. SMM style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/faint.gif

hI I I GOT TOLD I WAS HAVING MIGRAINS AS I ALSO GET DIZZY SPELLS AND FEEL SICK.
IT HAPPENS SAME WAY ALL TIME MY EYES GO LIKE I HAVE BEEN OUT IN THE SUN AND GONE BACK INSIDE SO CANN'T FOCUS THEN I GO DIZZY THEN HEADACHE THEN FEEL SICK.
I HAVE TABLETS FOR THIS THE DOCTO DID SAY IT WAS DUE TO MY BLOOD VESSELS IN MY HEAD CLOSING DOWN THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN OPEN UP QUICKLY SO LACK OF OXYGEN TO MY BRAIN.
BEST SEE THE DOCTOR ABOUT YOURS AS IT IS A SERIOUSE SYMPTOM SOME TIMES DON'T WANT TO SCARE YOU BUT MY DAD USE TO GET WHAT I HAVE THEN HE ENDED UP HAVING STROKE.

GO SEE THE DOCTOR JUST TO BE SURE THEY KNOW THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WHEN THEY LOOK IN YOUR EYES MY EYES DON'T REACT TO LIGHT.

I have had chicken pox before and i had them reallly bad so i know its not that plus they don't itch...:shrugs:
