The brain of patients with cerebral blood supply deficiency, like normal people, does not have any abnormalities. Insufficient blood supply to the brain, only a reduction in cerebral blood flow, so for brain CT and nuclear magnetic **** vibration are normal, for brain Doppler examination will find that the cerebral artery blood flow rate slows down, asymmetric blood flow or cerebral arterial spasm (contraction).
Not every patient with cerebral hypoperfusion has all of the above symptoms of cerebral hypoperfusion (there are different symptoms at different stages of the disease). Blood pressure (low or high) or blood lipids, blood glucose (abnormality), anemia, high blood viscosity (concentration), plus 2 or 3 of the symptoms of cerebral hypoperfusion, plus Doppler findings (slowing of cerebral blood flow, asymmetry, and spasm of the arterioles) can lead to a diagnosis of cerebral hypoperfusion. A diagnosis of cerebral hypoperfusion can be made. The Doppler results, combined with your mom's symptoms, basically lead to the diagnosis of cerebral insufficiency of blood supply. As for the cause of the hypoperfusion, the following tests should be performed.
The problem of insufficient cerebral blood supply is often found in the blood pressure (unfortunately, you did not provide your mother's blood pressure is how much, a lot of test results have not seen your introduction, to make the diagnosis difficult), it is recommended that your mother to the nearby clinic a few times to measure the blood pressure (because of the influence of the blood pressure of the reasons are more, only measured once can not explain the problem, not the same day to measure the three times. According to the value of 3 times measured blood pressure, comprehensive analysis and judgment), if the blood pressure is normal, and then go to the hospital neurology department to check the blood lipids, blood glucose, blood routine (to rule out anemia). Only by finding out the cause of the disease can we talk about treatment, and the treatment will be effective. Otherwise all the treatment is blind, and even harmful (some drugs side effects).
It is worth noting that the normal value of blood pressure in our country is set too low (our adult systolic blood pressure of 9O 12O mm Hg, diastolic blood pressure of 6O 8O mm Hg are normal). According to our years of treatment and observation of patients with intractable dizziness and headache, systolic blood pressure is lower than 11O millimeters of mercury, diastolic blood pressure is lower than 7O millimeters of mercury, most of the patients have different degrees of dizziness and headache symptoms. If the above criteria are followed, many patients with hypotension will be missed and misdiagnosed, losing the opportunity for early treatment! This problem, I hope to attract your attention, because once misdiagnosed, wasted a lot of money, not to mention, more importantly, people suffer, delayed the condition.
Insufficient blood supply to the brain, to be identified with cervical spondylosis. Because the symptoms of the two are very similar, a little negligence is easy to cause misdiagnosis; but the symptoms of the two are also different, a little attention can be avoided.
Cervical spondylosis, neck pain (not mild pain, especially when the head for the left and right, up and down activities neck pain aggravated. 5 different types of cervical spondylosis, the symptoms are different. However, obvious neck pain is the most basic symptom of each type of cervical spondylosis***. Without this symptom, it is difficult to establish the diagnosis of cervical spondylosis), numbness and weakness of the upper limbs, and radiating pain (i.e., pain in the neck radiating to the shoulders, arms, and fingers). Dizziness caused by cervical spondylosis is often associated with a fixed position of the head. Due to the cervical vertebrae instability or hyperplasia of the bone compression, resulting in vertebral artery limited pressure, avoid this position, vertebral artery pressure lifting dizziness disappeared. Therefore, cervical spondylosis does not cause persistent dizziness. According to your description, your mother's dizziness headache does not seem to have these characteristics, therefore, cervical spondylosis can be excluded. However, clinically, a mindset is formed that whenever there is dizziness and headache (no matter what the condition is), it is assumed to be caused by cervical spondylosis. I hope my answer is helpful to your mom!
Intractable dizziness and headaches have been one of the persistent medical problems for many years. Due to space constraints, it is not possible to go into details. If you are interested, please check my Baidu space, which has a detailed description (1, dizziness and headache why difficult to cure. 2, off dizziness and headache patients life, self-care instructions).
I wish your mom a speedy recovery!
