Light-headed and dizzy

[Ashley1489]

This is my X-ray .... Someone tell me what's wrong my chiropractor didn't tell me nothing

Can you tell me about your dizziness? How does it start? How does it make you feel? How kind does it last for?

Have you had an mri done yet?

[Ashley1489 in reply to Hidden]

More of a constant light headed feeling feel faint while standing or sitting for long periods of time.. and no I haven't had a mri

I felt that feeling before when i stand up or walk i feel like i will faint or fall.I consult my doctor about that and she gave me anti vertig and it helps...Also i had a blood test which are normal.

I would call your chiropractor back and ask him/her to explain it to you.

[Ashley1489 in reply to anxiouslady13]

I did more then once but he won't give me a straight answer other then my neck tilts..

Hi I seen where you y’all about vertigo and now I see your head tilt and just wanted to tell you my experience I too have a head tilt but it’s due to me compensating for my Balance I have bilateral vestibular loss a complete loss of Balance reflex n I caused a head tilt while unknowingly compensating for the loss of Balance .

[Ashley1489 in reply to falling2peices]

What excatly is bilateral vestibular loss

[falling2peices in reply to Ashley1489]

Good question that I’m waiting for my Ent to answer EXACTLY it’s easy to google but I wanna know what it means I’m my case lol but here a little information:

Bilateral vestibular loss refers to damage to the inner ears on both (bilateral) sides. ... This loss of inner ear input can cause imbalance while walking and performing everyday tasks. Because the inner ears are no longer communicating well with the brain and eyes, a sense of “jumping” or “bouncing” vision can occur.

I just wanna know with my.nerves tilted out that way could it be causing my dizziness

[kevoreally]

We arent doctors... im sorry but to most members on here we are litterally looking at an xray.. why didnt you ask your doctor? If he said nothing or said nothing was wrong take his word? If he said nothing at all then you ask him and if he doesnt tell you find a new doctor.. the forum specifically states we arent doctors.. im sorry i wish there was a better post i could say bit this is all true..

Ashley1489, I may not be a doctor but I have looked at plenty of my own cervical x-rays to not understanding either. Taken in the hospital, my xrays were always accompanied by a written explanation of the findings. If the chiropractor didn't tell you anything, there is probably nothing to tell. Your discomfort or pain can be coming from muscles, ligaments and connective tissue and not a disc problem. Take it as a good sign. xx

[Ashley1489]

I just don't get why the nerves are poking out and why he highlighted them ....

Not a Doctor by any means but after dealing with doctors on my dads back problems, sisters neck problems I can tell you this. Everybody's neck, spine and hips etc are all not perfectly aligned or straight. One leg is longer, one arm is shorter, one boob is bigger etc. In turn causes us to naturally twist or lean a certain way, plus as a woman having a child and how you carried them for how many years will all cause a lean or twist. Remember we are not symmetrical beings.

As for the doc not explaining things that just means find another doc, 2nd opinion time for piece of mind. The best doctor in the world is not a good doc if they can't explain or communicate. And the things you say are pointing out (nerves) to me look more like the angle of the x ray and pen marks.
