Causes of dizziness

[gehadoski]

Just to clarify: When you say you feel dizzy, do you mean woozy, weak, disoriented? Or do you have the sensation of spinning?

I mean spining

1. Its is pretty much one time thing. not most of the dives you can say that the ratio is 1:5 or something like that.
2. I have been diving in that suit since 2000.
3. I discovered that I have that disease when I was 6 month old. I ate beans. I turned blue so my mom and dad took me to the doctor and he said the I need to change my blood. So I changed my blood and then. they found that this is a geenatic problem. I inherited this from my grandmother. since that time I haven't try to eat beans again so I had no problem. Until I started deep diving.

I would agree with the suggestion to consult with a ENT specialist.

Your hood could actually be a factor in both alternobaric and caloric bouts of transient vertigo...

It would seem the symptoms would be present on the surface as well (especially when hauling gear around) if the root of the cause was your blood condition, not at depth when your increasing the ppO2.

I would be very interested in hearing what you find out,


Safe diving,

Jeff Lane

Hi there

There is a guy sent to me e-mail asking me for help in G6PD his name is Ofir Cohen. I am doing this to show you our generosity

Instead of sending me an e-mail you can post a thread in scubaboard and I am sure that here are poeple more professional.

If you want to know any information about the relation of G6PD and diving you can read this thread from the begining. If you want to know general information about G6PD, you can ask any doctor, I am not a doctor.

Ok thats will be all, Have a nice life
