Yes. My husband has thought many times that I was on something because I was so out of it. Honestly I wasn't on anything. Sadly I think it is just another symptom of Fibro.
I call these times my ditzy times 4 years ago I was taking college courses most the time these days I forget little things like how to pronounce words I have used all my life I will most likely so signs of my ditzy times on here spelling comes and goes to
I have and it was vertigo. Then another time was anxiety. You can also be off balance because fluid in your ears
I also have chronic vertigo and it is an awful feeling! I get bouts where I stumble around and fall, I look like I'm drunk or on drugs. I get vomiting and it usually triggers a migraine. There are a couple of medications that help if it gets too bad, they make me sleep but when I wake up it's a lot better. The last time I had a very severe case I had to call the squad because I couldn't even stand up. When I got to the hospital the Dr. said she couldn't do anything to help me that I needed to sleep off whatever I had taken. She was trying to send me home without treating me. She had my records in her hand but didn't bother to read them or she would have known exactly what to do. I had to call my sister at 4 in the morning who told the Dr. she had better not send me home in a cab. Finally at 7 a new Dr. came on duty and couldn't understand why the other Dr. didn't just give me the meds, especially since I had a stroke 2 years before at the age of 47. I felt humiliated and wrote a long letter to the hospital. Sorry to ramble but it still frustrates me! I can't think of the names of the meds but it may worth checking into, they really do help me. Good luck!
It's not unusual to feel like you described. However, if you have inner ear infection, it will cause vertigo, nausea, vomiting. I'd get checked to rule infection out. It can be very painful too.
