“I’m spinning around…” as the lyrics of Kylie Minogue song echoes in my head while I was literally spinning around. My head feels heavy and the world is turning round and round and round. I feel a sudden jolt inside my brain and I thought I was going to faint and slowly fade away to a second of unconsciousness.What the heck was it?! I am experiencing something called dizziness, vertigo, pre syncope, lightheadedness. And it’s not a good experience, believe me!!!
According to wikipedia:
The word "vertigo" comes from the Latin "vertere", to turn + the suffix "-igo", a condition = a condition of turning about.
Vertigo is a specific medical term used to describe the sensation of spinning or having the
room spin about you. Most people find vertigo very disturbing and often report associated nausea and vomiting.
It doesn’t feel right. I feel terribly bad. For the past months, I have been experiencing moments of vertigo. I have consulted my MDs and even made couple of second opinions, but it all boils down a not complicated type of vertigo. They always say it's probably lack of sleep or stress. "Nothing to worry", as I wanna quote my MDs. I am not even pregnant. I take my meds with meals. My blood work ups are very normal. I don’t lack sleep (err, but sometimes yes). I have no other medical diagnosis possibly relating to my vertigo. So, what’s probably causing it?!
Again, as my crazy mind juggles several crazy ideas, I came up with a
possible connection of my health problem. It’s probably because I think too much. I feel that my mind can’t take enough of the deep thinking and over analysis of things, that perhaps it jiggles inside my brain and causing me to suddenly feel dizzy. Too many things at hand, too many things to think, too much stress, to many…. Too many… then boom… I feel dizzy!
Does it make sense?! I think it does, in a crazy way perhaps… err….

Anyways, I'm sharing some good reads regarding this health diagnosis called vertigo. Find time to gather infos if you feel this spinning around crisis like me.
