I went to my GP in Feb with the following symptoms. Forehead pressure (right at the bridge of the nose) and a lightheaded feeling, maybe even a small case of dizziness that would come and go. I never get so dizzy that I black out or stumble but I do feel dizzy. Addtionally, I am constantly feeling tired and run down. After trying over the counter medications with nothing helping, I called my GP and he connected me up with an ENT Dr. The first visit he ran many tests and stated that he thought I had had a viral infection of the inner ear. Told me it would clear up with time. I left feeling pretty good. Several weeks later I felt worse than before and after calling his office he put me on steroids and was told to visit him again in 2 weeks. That day I once again felt good during my visit with him and he prescribed Singulair (I am still taking these). This is now going on 2 weeks and I still get this pressure at the bridge of my nose, I feel lightheaded and I also experience a shooting pain or swath of dizziness that passes thru my head very quickly several times a day. I am tired of feeling poor and don't know what to do? Both Dr.s seemed to agree that a brain tumor was out of the question but I don't know for sure. I read about them on line and don't believe that I show the usualy symptoms of a turmor. Does anyone else have these problems? I am thinking about visiting a Neurologist. Any thoughts?
