What Causes Dizziness And Pain At The Back Of The Head?

Help! I have been having a number of unrelated issues in last 5 months and wondering if they are in fact related. I am 53 year old post menopausal woman, reasonably good health up until this last year. I have experienced a tooth pulled due infection in root canal, a shoulder freeze-up which sent me to hospital with 10+ pain score, a heart burn attack with endoscopy (now on pantoprazole), bowel trouble (got colonoscopy). Now I am experiencing dizziness, pains coming and going quickly in back of head, neck and chest front and back. Also weird knee and ankle pain. Think I had allergy attack from pollens, although tests show no allergy present. Please please help.

Hi,

By what you say I feel that it might be age related and vertigo and is easily treatable with Betahistine and it is a prescription drug. I suggest you consult your physician with this tip and get evaluated and treated please.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
