[18F] Experiencing disorientation, headache, dizziness, fatigue, and Akinetopsia

What might be happening

Based on the symptoms you've provided, here are some possible conditions:

• Migraine: This is a type of headache that may be accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, and visual disturbances (akinetopsia). Migraines can sometimes cause disorientation due to the severe pain or the aura that some people experience.

  • Treatment typically involves medications to relieve the symptoms and prevent future migraines.

• Vertigo: This condition causes a sensation of feeling off balance and can lead to dizziness and disorientation. It's often caused by problems in the inner ear or brain.

  • Treatment depends on the cause and can include medications, physical therapy maneuvers, or surgery in severe cases.

• Neurological conditions: Certain conditions affecting the brain, such as a transient ischemic attack (TIA, or "mini-stroke"), stroke, or multiple sclerosis, can cause symptoms like disorientation, dizziness, and visual disturbances. However, these are less common in your age group.

  • Treatment depends on the specific condition and can range from medications to surgery.

Please note that this is not an exhaustive list and other conditions could also explain your symptoms.

Given the range of possible conditions and the severity of some of them, it's important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. In the meantime, try to rest and stay hydrated.
