Lupus Dizzy ess

[Clcp1]

I was diagnosed in November 2016 with lupus and rhumatoid arthritis.

I have recently been suffering with dizziness and my Dr also things I may be developing asthma. Currently undergoing tests. Has this happened to anybody else ?

Yes I’ve had both of these lately but I have Sjögren’s with RA and I think my dizziness is Eustacian Tube Dysfunction perhaps and asthma was more likely Sjögren’s related upper respiratory tract infection following a virus.

Hi clip

Sorry to read of your dizziness problems. I've suddenly had the same and mine has been caused by a fast heart rate. I've been put on a beta blocker and it's stopped the dizziness thankfully as its a horrible symptom. Intetesting your being monitored for asthma. A lot of drugs have side effect of dizziness so might be worth looking at your treatments patient leaflets as well. Do you take Hydroxyquoliquine as it can cause dizziness as a rare side effect?.

There can be lots of reasons for dizziness so I hope you get it checked out and helped. You have enough to cope with having lupus and RA!. Keep us postedX
