depression symptoms vertigo

m now wondering if perhaps my symptoms are due to depression or are perhaps exacerbated because of depression. My question is can depression be a purely physical disease? In other words, can one have depression without feeling 'sad' emotionally? I've always been a happy, optimistic person. I have no other major stressors in my life, aside from my present illness. I'm a 30 y/o male with no history of any serious illness. I'm in good shape and have a good social life.

I have been battling the dizziness, pressure, off balance feeling for some time now, I notice there are other post on here, I was admitted to the hospital with a low heart rate (45) resting.

t know if i do have vertigo or depression ,i can justify my symptoms it very confusing ,however even nowdays i feel pain in my vertigo .What i like to ask you which treatment do you receive at the moment from your Doctor and also what did the specialist advise you to do. Hensley ,can we get cure with this disease after we have suffered allot.I really rely on God i dont know what to do .

What i presume to be "Vertigo attacks" started happening again not long after i'd just had my first ear syrying due to my ear canals being so full of wax, it strikes out of the blue even when i'm sat still, its infuriating,nauseating and my depression cracked under the stress because of it all. Although this isnt the first case of it i've ever had its been happening recently and quite often.

To me, it sounds like you may have both anxiety and depression. They go hand in hand a lot of times. This is actually pretty common. Have you thought about counseling? I think it's worth a try. You need someone to talk to about how your feeling. People that don't have anxiety and depression have a very hard time understanding it. You might want to ask your boyfriend to do some research on these. It will help him better understand what's going on with you.

Hello there, I'm terribly sorry to hear what you are suffering from. It's common for anxiety sufferers to experience dizziness and vertigo but since you haven't done many test maybe we can't blame it all on anxiety. I would suggest seeing a neurologist to rule out other illness. Maybe he will suggest you do some scan like a CT-Scan or MRI to rule out serious illness.

I too get your symptoms, and I too find it hard to eat. We can't help it. Lack of sleep, lack of food, depression. Don't make fun of us whodunnit. Easier said than don e to say "go eat and stop this silliness." Not helpful!!

I have migraines, headaches, dizziness, tingling in fingers :(

As far as the anxiety and depression, maybe consider a sleep study because sleep disorders often manifest with symptoms like depression and anxiety. You may have more than one source of your symptoms, which would make them as a whole not make sense.

Have leaking heart valve,an in depression,as just lost husband of56 yrs 6 months ago.Have had lots of vertigo in past also night sweats .Never all at once,body burning up dizziness ,pain in left shoulder,needles to say called 911 paramedics said probable admit,took 4 hrs. On a none busy nite.Dr just wanted me for conversation.

My psychiatrist who is treating my dpression assured me that my symptoms are real and he strongly feels the depression is associated with my illness. I just want something to help my symptoms so I can move forward with my life. I'm now concerned about how my career will be affected. I can't be off work very much. I'll have to look into my options there. Well, thanks again Quix, I appreciate you. Have a great day!

The symptoms you mention could be signs for vertigo. However, often times vertigo is also just a symptom of something else. If the meds.does not help, perhaps it is time that you seek a second opinion.

considering all the research I have done on lyme -----but----- does anyone know what lyme symptoms are ?!!

Multiple sclerosis can cause vertigo, but often, other symptoms are present as well. A normal MRI of the brain excludes multiple sclerosis. Thyroid problems can also lead to vertigo. Your symptoms may be consistent with a variant of migraine called basilar migraine. Basically this is marked by several hours of vertigo associated with nausea, light-sensitivity, and sometimes other symptoms. Headache may or may not be present.

Also sometimes my ears feel as if they are underwater and my hearing fluctuates. Are any of these symptoms related to vertigo?

nausea, headache, vertigo. On this third day the symptoms are still mild to moderate at times; however, today I started having short crying spells and irritability.. Has anyone else had a similiar experience when changing to Wellbutrin. If not noted on this forum, I'll probably believe it is delayed withdrawal from Effexor, and go with some helpful suggestions found on this site.

Most people with severe Depression can not relate to my symptoms of nausea, vertigo, and light headed ness. Nice to hear from someone that is experiencing the same symptoms. Mine are so bad that I spent a lot of time and money with Neurologists trying to understand why I suffer these symptoms. They couldn't find any logical reason for this and I still suffer from these symptoms to this day.

Dizziness, nasuea, light headed, faint, slight vertigo that comes on in the afternoon and last for hours. Then sudden onset of loss of appetite & rectal bleeding. Rectal bleeding is not associated with pain, discomfort, or strain. I am very regular and take fibre supplements, i don't have heammeroids. Previous vitamen b12 deficency. My partner says I look pale, and dark circles under my eyes. I feel like ****! Whats wrong with me, Oh and lower back pain.

Earplugs,initiating Valsalva maneuver, Epley maneuver, head and neck relaxation exercises, sends signals to the brain by activating the vestibulo choclear system, Eustachian tube, in relation to gravity, there fore helps you come out of the situation-this is called Vestibular Rehabilitation Physical Therapy, generally suggested to every person with symptoms of Vertigo of any origin.

He was also hoping that this was a possible cause, but since stopping that Therapy, the symptoms are still persistent. How long does Vertigo normally last, and is hospitalization and IV therapy effective? Is Physical Therapy effective for this at all?

What you described sounds like cervical vertigo. There are physical therapists that specialize in cervical vertigo. You might want to see you your doctor knows anything about this and can refer you to a physical therapy group that has a therapist that deals with this. It can take a while to get in with them. In addition I have fibromyalgia. I often describe how I feel and it's what you described.

The symptoms often include vertigo that occurs with turning of the head, often while turning over in bed. Another cause, if your symptoms are associated with tinnitus (ear ringing) and hearing loss is called Meniere’s disease and can be treated with medications and sometimes surgery. And so on, several other causes from inner ear problems exist. Vertigo can also be due to problems in the brain. The most common is a benign tumor called a schwanoma (also called acoustic neuroma).

Tried Bonine for vertigo since it has Meclizine in it but no help. I still keep falling into walls. My daughter (college student) is here and says if I start spewing pea soup she will call in an exorcist LOL!!! She is ready to leave because I keep getting rages. My husband's famopus last words were "buy some Depends". HA!! Also, asked before but has anyone been dx with Hashimoto's encephalopathy?
