What Is The Treatment Of Dizziness ?

for a couple of weeks I've been feeling dizzy (light headed), blurry vision, and a little bit nauseaus! I went to urgent care and got checked out and doctor says it could be virtigo and also I might have suffered a anxiety attack? Today I am again feeling very dizzy and now I feel my tongue getting numb and and a weird sensation shooting down my legs? should I go to urgent care again?

Neurologist 's  Response
Hello!

Welcome on Healthcaremagic!

Your symptoms could be related to a panic attack, as there is no neurological disorder with such combination of symptoms.
Anyway, if the problem persists, I recommend consulting with an ENT specialist for a physical exam and labyrinthine tests to exclude a possible inner ear disorder.
Some blood lab tests are also necessary to exclude any possible metabolic causes, which may mimic this clinical situation : ( complete blood count for anemia, thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction, blood electrolytes for possible imbalance).
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Best wishes, Dr. Aida
