Dizziness, lightheadedness, memory loss, headache, disorientation

Within the past few months I have been getting spells of dizziness, which are getting more frequent. I can be sitting on the sofa and a dizzy spell with hit me without any activity. Lightheadedness and blurred to a complete loss of vision also accompanies it. I had a head injury back in 1997 where I had a form of amnesia. but progressively my memory is getting worse. I have basically no short term retension and I am beginning to lose my long term memory as well. Headaches are a constant at the base of my skull and across my temporal area. About a week ago, i was driving to school, which I take the same route everyday, and I found myself completely lost, although i had not deviated from my path. what possibly could this be or could they not be interrelated?

Dizziness, hotheadedness, memory loss, headache, disorientation ? This would be according to your age . and i would assume you've had testing for this condtion and if not then you need to be tested for a few things like a brain wave scan and blood pressure and also a test for mental memory , short term and long term . and also a test for nerve endings response . and then and only then can we tell you what is going on.

Dizziness, hotheadedness, memory loss, headache, disorientation ? This test will confirm that stroke is ruled out or that you have had a mini stroke but this also sounds like some other conditions that may effect on the memory !
