weird sickness?
Well this has been happening to me for as long as I can remember and its complicated but I'll try my best to explain so you guys can tell me what to do, because I am so confused, but I'm 16 years old now, and about every 3 months I wake up in the morning feeling dizzy. This lasts for about 5 days on the average, and it really is terrible, I can't get out of bed otherwise, if I'm walking I start to get naueasous(and if I keep walking will eventually throw up) and I start to get hot, to almost a sweating point, so I pretty much have to miss school and lay in bed the whole time. This has been going on forever, and no matter what I do it doesn't go away. I can kind of feel it coming on a few days before so I know when its going to happen, and I know its gotta happen sometime this week. Next week is warped tour and I can't bail it, so I'm worried its going to interfere with warped and I'm so upset over it, I just want it to stop happening to me, I can't live like this, I just dont know what to do and I need help. My mom doesnt even know I still get these feelings, because she would make me go to school when I got them and I would end up throwing up in school. She doesnt think its anything serious and doesnt believe me, and tells me to tough it out. But she doesnt understand, this isnt something you can tough out. Also: I noticed that my right eye gets kind of inflamed, from the inside of my eye to the part where color starts is an inflamed red stripe. I want the dizziness to stop forever, and I want to live my life, I need quick relief, somebody, help me please?

I quickest way to get relief from what's going on with you, is to see a doctor. If there is something serious going on with your body, it's best to know. I'm aware that sometimes when you know there's something not right with you, going to see a doctor is kind of scary. You'd prefer to just shrug it off and wait for it to heal on it's own. But, since this has been going on for a while, and it happens so frequently... it's best to talk to your mom, get to your doctor, and have this checked out.
If you know this illness enough to where you can actually feel it coming on-- that's a big deal. But, if you can get these signals, then you'll know when to set up an appointment and explain to the doctor what exactly is going on.
Until then? Stay healthy. Vitamins, exercise, and a positive mind set. Don't assume the worst-- just know that you're going to have to put up with these symptoms until you have them diagnosed by a professional.
Human bodies are strange. Half the time, especially at young, fragile ages-- illnesses come easily and you won't understand them. You'll get strange pains, bumps, bruises. Don't put it in your mind that something horrific is happening. Just have it looked at, and keep your head up.
You're 16. Fragile age, with a lot of anxiety and tribulations. At 16, you are far too young to believe that you won't be okay.
I wish you the best of luck.

You really do need to see a doctor. If it's been going on this long it seems unlikely it's going to go away without proper treatment.
No one here is going to be able to diagnose you and it would be wrong to try. You appear to be old enough to go to a doctor by yourself, but not knowing which country you're from, it's hard to say what the rules are. In the UK children from the age of 12 can go unaccompanied to a doctor.
You cannot keep trying to 'tough it out', this needs medical attention. I'm all in favour of not giving in easily but you need to know when it's the right time to see a doctor, and this is it!
Does you mother know about your eye? Maybe if you showed her that and told her about all the other symptoms that are re-curring, she may realise something needs to be done.
Warped tour may be important to you at this point but your long term health should be of more concern. Please do everything you can to see a doctor and get this sorted out. If it turns out to be nothing at least it should stop you worrying.
