Head spinning can’t walk straight

(Pri ) #1

Anyone experiencing this. I am blacking out, head is spinning. Can’t walk straight. I am doing keto since December. I never even had keto flu. But sine last night I am experiencing this. Anyone?

If you’re blacking out you need to go to the doctor or hospital asap. Something is wrong, your body is trying to tell you that.

I blacked out a few times recently… turned out it was a life threatening pulmonary embolism that needed to be broken up with tPA via a catheter placed into the artery.

Go to the Doctor.

I’ve never hear of that as a keto symptom ever. Definitely get to a doctor or hospital ASAP.

Its likely that pre-keto things were already not the best, so now that keto is melting all the fat and it starts moving around its possible it has created issues. OP should see a doctor as those are not keto symptoms.

I don’t know what and how I explain to doctor what’s happening and what tests they can run.
I am going on with day ok but surely not feeling well. If I stand up fast I can fall and even walking I feel I am foggy and light headed. Hope I am explaining it right.

Just tell the doctor your symptoms - they will know what tests to run. At the very least I would think they’d check your blood pressure & your electrolytes.

See a doctor.

I have. Not fun. All of life stops. I hope that was diagnosed for you by a doctor and you got the care you need. Take care!

Vertigo can have many causes from inner ear infection to discontinuation of certain medications. Did you see a doctor?

I had it once. The doctor gave me two prescriptions. I had to take the meds and wait for it to pass.
