Sick for 2 months

    Hi, really not sure what I might gain from posting on here but I've been sick since the start of the year and I'm cracking up. I've been to 3 doctors and 2 hospitals (both overnight stays) but I still have no answers. All the usual tests were good, blood, ecg, blood pressure etc. So frustrating.

    I'm in my mid 30's. I've been getting these really horrible lightheaded/confusion/head pressure/weak neck symptoms, sometimes lasting all day. I can't function properly and I can't go out without feeling like I'm going to collapse.

    It all seemed to start around the same time I got a bit of dental work done; couple of fillings replaced and an implant, but maybe that's just a coincidence.

    I really wish I knew what's going on, it's having a big effect on me and 2 months of being sick is really taking its toll.

    I'm generally healthy, I've had an uneventful and untreated Sarcoidosis diagnosis since 2012 but that's about it. I've been off cigarettes since 2011.

    Any advice, words of wisdon would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! :(

    Is there any chance is could be vertigo? My girlfriend had been suffering with very similar symptoms and was prescribed medicine for treating vertigo.

    Though it wasn't until she met with a endorphine release therapist that she was relieved of all the symptoms.

    Genuinely hope something can be done for you :(

    get a food intolerance test, you would be amazed at how many people get intolerant to certain foods and dont even know it! you can become intolerant at any time so dont think it cant happen to you. i was feeling terrible for ages and doctor couldnt find anything wrong with me. turned out i was lactose intolerant. doctors dont check food intolerance!!. a lot of pharmacies do simple blood tests for it. :) worth a try!.
