What Causes Severe Diarrhea And Dizziness?

symptoms: seems to be mostly in my head right now....sinuses...dizzy...left ear very sore....eyes and eyelids are swollen. hard to breath. it came on very fast. the clinic NP said no signs of bacterial infection so they did not give me any antibiotics...said I had Sinusitis , but I ve never felt so bad, not just in my head but all over my body. blood pressure & heart rate races occasionally. bouts of diarrhea and stomach upset. I still have an appetite but certain foods make me dizzy and increase my diarrhea. my concern is possible diabetic? otherwise I am 64 yrs old, very healthy, very active, still working, no meds of any kind... don t drink, smoke 1+ pk cigs per day...weight around 165 but solid muscle. very scary for me. What to do?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to the use of antibiotics.

I suggest using over the counter option like Imodium.

I also recommend to take daily probiotics and eat a plain diet.

If the symptoms continue I suggest doing a stool test for further evaluation.

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

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
