Weird Symptoms


Question Posted Wednesday October 28 2009, 10:18 pm

ok I'm only a fifteen year old girl. For some reason I get a variety of symptoms at random. Tunnel vision, shaking, muscle spasms, light-headed/dizzy/queasy, and lots of headaches. I've already been to the doctor, but she only focused on one symptom. She thought I might be dehydrated, which is possible, but that doesn't explain some of the symptoms. She tested my blood pressure laying down to sitting and from sitting to standing up. It dropped a little on the first one, and significantly on the second. Which is why she thought it was dehydration. But dehydration doesn't cause muscle spasms, does it? All of my symptoms happen RANDOMLY, not just when I'm hungry (hypoglycemic)and not just when changing position (dehdration). But at any moment it could happen. What could it be? or is it just nothing?

Also if I move just right my back twinges painfully along my spine. Could that have anything to do with it?.

I am a great deal older than most of the advisers on this site, so my advice will be somewhat different from what you may have received and may continue to receive from others.

It sounds as if you do not trust your doctors’ opinion or diagnosis. If this is true the best advice I can give you is to ask your parents to arrange for you to see another doctor for a second opinion. Having another doctor, someone you have not seen before, provide a second opinion is a common occurrence, and one most insurance companies will allow.

The advisors on this forum are not doctors and should not be offering medical advice or diagnosis. Only a doctor can determine, through proper testing, what may be effecting you based on the symptoms you supply them. We could be totally wrong and say you have something that is totally benign when in actuality you have something that at the time is easily treated by a doctor. Left untreated your illness grows into something that is much harder to treat. This is why you should, when it comes to medical advice, seek out a medical professional for all matters relating to your medical well being. Should you disagree with the doctors findings then seek another opinion from another doctor.
