[49F] Experiencing dizziness, headache, and left-sided weakness

What might be happening

Based on the information you've provided, here are some possible explanations for your symptoms:

• Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) or Stroke: Your symptoms of lightheadedness, headache, blurred vision, decreased alertness, and left-sided weakness could be signs of a TIA or stroke. These conditions occur when blood flow to a part of your brain is blocked or reduced, often by a blood clot. High blood pressure, like you have, is a risk factor for these conditions.

  • Treatment typically involves medications to prevent blood clots and control symptoms, and sometimes surgery.

• Migraine: Migraines can cause severe headaches, nausea, and symptoms like blurred vision (aura). However, they don't usually cause one-sided weakness.

  • Treatment typically involves medications to stop symptoms and prevent future attacks.

• Hypertension: Uncontrolled high blood pressure can cause headaches, lightheadedness, and blurred vision. However, it doesn't usually cause one-sided weakness.

  • Treatment typically involves lifestyle changes and medications to lower blood pressure.

• Side Effects of Medication: Both Lisinopril and Buproprion can cause dizziness and headaches. Lisinopril can also cause fatigue and decreased appetite.

  • Treatment typically involves adjusting the medication under the guidance of a healthcare provider.

Please remember that this is not an exhaustive list of all possible conditions, and having these symptoms does not necessarily mean you have one of these conditions.

What you can do

Given the severity and sudden onset of your symptoms, it's important to seek immediate medical attention. Please go to the emergency department or call an ambulance right away.

• Sudden, severe headache
