I get the dizziness or off balance feeling a lot. I put it down to the muscle tension or not in my neck and shoulders. Sometimes when I do the stretches my physio gave me I can click it all back into place and have a dizzy free day . Do you have muscle tension if so maybe a physio or chiropractic appointment may help

Take care

Hello

No I don't take any meds I tried a couple didn't seem to do much for me .

They tell me you need to allow up to six weeks to feel benefits.

I think that my anxiety is health based so I need to fix the physical before the mental , I am still convinced the dizzy comes from the neck muscle tension .

Have a good day.

Hi Maria,I could just be sitting talking to someone,and wham, my head just swims,sometimes I grab the table it happens that fast..scares the hell out of me.could only last a few seconds,but I find if Im tense it happens more often..I would say it is anxiety,as I had all tests done and they were fine..xx
