Expert: Samantha Mattingly Date: 3/9/2008 Subject: What is happening to me?
Question About one month ago, I started feeling not myself. The first thing that happened was sometimes when I looked at writing it seemed a little blurry to me. Then I started feeling dizzy. I am the worrying type, so I thought that I was going blind or I was dieing. I let my parents know about what was happening, and my dad told me that I probably just needed more vitamins in my body since I don't eat alot of fruits and veggies. So I started taking vitamin pills. They didn't do alot, but after a while my vision wasn't so blurry when I looked at writing and my dizziness went away. I thought that I was going to finally be back to normal again, but then recently I've been feeling dizzy after I watch t.v or sometimes go on the computer for a short while. I did stop taking the vitamin pills for a little bit, but I started again. So I am again extremely worried. Do I have some sort of problem in my head like cancer or something, or what exactly is happening to me? I really want to feel myself again because it isn't fun feeling like this. So please get back to me soon, thank-you.
Answer Dear Sandra,
There are eye conditions that can cause this, but I'm not sure what you may have. I'd see an eye doctor right away before it gets any worse, as it can develope into something serious. By the way, you aren't dying, and you don't have head cancer.
