I have had a headache since last Sunday, I'm dizzy every down and then, can't eat anything but pretzels, get really sick and queasy... and I don't know if I should go to the ER. I don't have a PCP at the moment.
I'm not as stressed as I used to be, been really busy that's why I haven't been online, but it hasn't been as bad as it used to be. Paul is fine, and everything is going okay. I'm just confused on what I should do.
I can deal with this, but it worries me, the headache is dull usually, and just annoying, but no headache should last this long... going on a week.
I also can't focus, concentrate, and at times I zone out. I haven't changed dosages on my meds or my meds in general. I also haven't hit my head.
I have three mysterious bruises that I don't remember getting, and they're pretty dark and ugly. What should I do?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I know when I get busy and run down I'm more susceptable to infection and illness. First thing that comes to mind when you mention ear and headache is an ear infection, but not sure if that's what you thought it might be? Well, in my case, I ended up in the hospital for letting an ear infection go too long.
Regardless of what it is, do get in to see Dr. asap. With Mon. being a holiday though, is there anywhere else you can go before Tues??
Take care of yourself!
I get headaches and dizzy when I don't eat enough. Low blood sugar. Apple juice and popsicles.
The bruising may be a side effect of the meds. Maybe?
If you have been taking aspirin for the pain, that thins your blood and you will bruise much easier and can do it without even knowing it. I don't know if any other pain relievers do that.
SEE A DOC. ASAP
