What Causes Dizziness And Burning Sensation On The Scalp?

Hi, I have been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin s lyphoma and awaiting chemo. In the last two days when rising from sitting position and getting up from bed, my head, forehead and scalp seem to be burning and very hot This doesn’t last long, but I am also now getting dizzy, again not for long. Any ideas please? Thanks Alan

Hello,

Thanks for your query on HCM

"As"per your clinical history is concerned your present symptoms are not due to lymphoma so please follow like this -

1)Check your fasting blood sugar

2)Discuss with your treating Doctor about [iron & vitamin B 12] injections.

3)To prevent it, include Iron-rich foods like meats, beans, lentils, iron-fortified cereals, dark green leafy vegetables, and dried fruit in diets.

Hope that helps
