Dizziness/Vertigo
Dizziness vs Vertigo
Dizziness is the sensation of feeling faint, unsteady, or weak. We’ve all had that feeling as if you can’t focus, can’t see straight, can’t stand upright without swaying or falling. You may even experience “tunnel vision,” where your peripheral vision goes dark for a few seconds.
Dizziness is common and can have many causes such as:
• Lack of sleep
• Overexertion
• Physical illness such as flu or sinus congestion
Symptoms that tend to accompany vertigo include: Inability to focus or remain alert:
Vertigo, however, is a little different. Vertigo is typically a response to a physiological factor that is causing a quite literal imbalance in your body. Those experiencing vertigo have reported feeling as if they are “rocking” or “spinning,” even when they are sitting still.
Vertigo can be caused by:
• Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo
• Meniere’s Disease
• Vestibular Neuritis
• Stroke
Symptoms that tend to accompany vertigo include:
• Inability to focus or remain alert
• Double vision
• Nausea or vomiting
• Arm or leg weakness
• Difficulty seeing or speaking
• Sweating
• Abnormal eye movements
