My symptoms...
1) Tingling hands and feet
2) Extreme dizziness and loss of balance
3)Shortness of breath
I had an MRI done last week..nothing showed. I had an electrocadiogram..nothing. I have a tryglycerides level of 356, which is scary. But my symptoms have gotten worse and worse over the last 5-6 months. And that's how long I've had the symptoms. Inner ear, diabetes, and stroke is what I've narrowed it down to..but my blood test showed I was only lacking iron and magnesium in my diet..help me..I've had these symptoms for 4-5 months..is it possible these are strokes I've been experienceing for the past 4-5 months?? These symptoms are occuring all day long too..

I am assuming you went to a neurologist. If you haven't make an appointment immediately. If you have, go for a 2nd opinion..

Hi Nazzy,
Sounds soooooooo like an inner ear problem, hop over to that forum and you will see!! everybody has very similar symptoms to yours!!! the dizzy and balance ones caused by the inner ear problems (usually but not always caused by a virus) and then the tingly and short of breath feelings from anxiety caused by the dizzy and balance problems. Dont worry about a stroke for sure if they suspected that they would tell you and an MRI would have shown something, it was clear so take heart.
Incidentally its not a neurologist you need but a neuroTologist! they are the experts wne it comes to dizzy/balance problems.
