General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

I would like to know about the accident. Was it near/on the head? Had it cause bleeding and how much?

I would also like to know
1. Your height and weight
2. any symptoms other than above
3. What is your blood pressure at the present?

I would like you to have some tests:
1. Blood Routine Test
2. Serum Ferritin
3. Head CT
4. Middle Ear CT
5. Eye exam in an eye centre

These tests may give us some clue to what is happening in your body. I may determine your next step of treatment.
Do not worry, there are ample of treatments available and we are here to serve you.

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

Regards,
Dr. Dipan Samanta, General & Family Physician
