Need advice pls

For the last few days I keep getting really strange sensations I feel almost like I’m going to faint but I don’t and my head feels like it’s in a bubble. I also keep getting tremors and struggle to keep hold of things intermittently. Is this common with Lupus? Or should I see the dr tomorrow?

Thanks

I would definitely go and see your doctor to be on the safe side x

I have found that my hands often do not want to work right, or they seem to "forget" they are holding things and wind up dropping whatever I'm holding. That part seems to be par for the course for my lupus, day in, day out.

The feeling faint part is not something I've experienced unless I was having very low blood pressure - I would check for that and/or have a doctor check for that. Low blood pressure can be dangerous. If it's something other than blood pressure, it's still definitely something you want to check in with a doctor for! Unconscience is not a healthy state of being.

Hi, I have had many episodes, as you describe, feeling like I am going to pass out, and just weird, sometimes happens when driving which is scary. I also lose use of right hand intermittently, I spoke to my rheumatology depth, and I did have intermittent low BP, I was thoroughly checked out but they said just lupus! It's very hard to cope with.

Hi it sure is, I have two young children (I wasn’t diagnosed until after they were born) I hate it as I feel I can not fully be the mum I want to be and I feel I let them down. X
