Hi. I m just very concerned about my 29 year-old daughter who recently had vertigo so badly that she couldn t walk for 9 days. She was unable to lift her head without vomiting and had a loss of peripheral vision. She went to urgent care, and they did blood work that came back normal with the exception of high glucose, low protein and zinc. I have MS and am concerned she may too. She also has a 1/2 brother with a brain tumor. Should I insist she at least get an MRI of the brain?
Hi, I think she should definitely proceed for an MRI of the brain. Short of that, I think a neurologist should definitely take a look at her. The sudden onset of vertigo and visual loss could be any brain lesion including an MS as well as tumor or stroke. In the meantime, she should surely take medicines for high sugars. Since I do not have the exact values I will not be able to make an appropriate comment. I have made it as simple as possible. Do let us know the reports and I will try to help you further from there. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. ChatDoctor, Planetologist
