Accepted Answer

Given your symptoms, I recommend consulting an:

1. *ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) Specialist*: As dizziness can be related to inner ear issues, such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).
2. *Neurologist*: To rule out any underlying neurological conditions that might be causing your dizziness.
3. *General Physician*: If you're unsure about which specialist to consult, start with a general physician who can evaluate your overall health and refer you to a specialist if needed.

Before consulting a doctor:

1. *Keep a symptom journal*: Track when the dizziness occurs, how long it lasts, and any triggers you notice.
2. *Monitor your blood pressure*: Ensure your blood pressure is within a healthy range.
3. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day.

During the consultation:

1. *Share your medical history*: Inform your doctor about your previous experience with dizziness 3 years ago.
2. *Describe your symptoms*: Provide detailed information about your dizziness, including when it occurs, how long it lasts, and any triggers you've noticed.

Question 5

The other night I got pretty drunk and ended up throwing up, but it was this weird black, like coffee ground color vomit. I actually felt okay when I woke up the next morning though. Is this something I should be worried about?

Accepted Answer

The black ground coffee color vomit you experienced could be due to the presence of blood in your vomit. This can be a sign of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. I recommend you to take Pantoprazole 40mg once daily before breakfast for 2 weeks. If the symptom persists, please consult a doctor for further evaluation.

Question 6
