I've had this constant heaviness in my head since July 2013 and it's really affecting my balance when I'm walking or standing. It feels like there's pressure moving around in my head all the time. When it first started, I was feeling dizzy constantly and I couldn't hear properly for like ten days. This all happened after I experienced some dizziness and I was on Mala D pills for about seven to eight months because of my PCOD. Back then, I even felt balance problems while standing during my PCOD treatment. I've tried anxiety meds but they didn't help for long. I'm not sure what's going on but I've been on different medications since, and nothing has worked. Right now, there's constant pressure around my head, I'm always tired and dizzy, and my energy is super low. I can't stand still without feeling this heaviness moving around. It's so frustrating and I can't really describe how weird it makes me feel. Plus, I don't get my periods without medicine... because of PCOD. Could you please help me figure out what's happening?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to vestibular migraine, which can cause a variety of symptoms including dizziness, imbalance, and pressure in the head. The history of giddiness, balance problems, and ongoing symptoms like tiredness, dizziness, and low energy are suggestive of this condition. To help manage these symptoms, you can try taking preventive medications such as Amitriptyline

I'm having trouble holding a pen properly and writing because my index finger doesn't seem to grip it right. My finger itself seems fine, though. What could be causing this issue, and how can I fix it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing difficulty with fine motor control, which could be due to issues with coordination or muscle strength, even if there's no apparent problem with the finger itself. I recommend consulting a specialist, such as a neurologist or occupational therapist, who can assess the underlying cause and suggest exercises or treatments to improve your grip and writing ability.

I'm experiencing this intense headache that seems to start from the back on the left side of my head, but it only happens during orgasm. There's no lingering effect afterward, and everything else like my diet and sleep is normal. It's kind of worrying me, and I'm curious about what might be causing this. Any idea what could be going on?

It sounds like the headache could be related to a tension or vascular response triggered during orgasm. While it's not uncommon for certain activities to cause temporary discomfort, if this continues, I recommend consulting with a doctor to rule out any underlying neurological issues. In the meantime, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper sleep, hydration, and stress management is important.
