dizzy

[janeths466]

Like mentioned in my previous post my mom had her surgery and no spread to lymph nodes. Still waiting to go to oncologist even tho it has been 3 months since. She looks great and she is also in dyalisis. Lately she has experienced dizzy spells ocassionally. And I am so scared for mets. I know she is also in dyalisis, but like mets is my biggest fear ever. I check on every symtpom she has since her ICU stay. If anything can it spread that quick?

Is she drinking lots of water? Her electrolytes May be low. Add a sports drink to her daily routine. There are some similar to Gatorade that are sugarless.

I did have brain meta that caused nausea and vomiting and headaches but not dizziness. I had craniotomy to remove a walnut size lesion in my cerebellum and stereotactic reduction to nets in frontal lobe and a few other places. More than a year later, I suffered from severe dizziness that was eventually diagnosed as BPPV (a kind of vertigo). I have struggled off and On with that since then in addition to another balance issue. I am treated by a special physical therapist called a vestibular therapist.

When was her last brain MRI?
