Several illnesses can start with dizziness; however, the provided reference specifically mentions two nervous system conditions: Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis can present with dizziness.
Nervous System Conditions and Dizziness
Dizziness can be a symptom of underlying nervous system issues. According to the reference, conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, or parts of the body controlled by nerves can lead to a loss of balance that worsens over time.
- Parkinson's Disease: A progressive disorder that affects movement, often starting with tremors but can also include dizziness.
- Multiple Sclerosis (MS): A disease in which the immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibers, causing communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body. This can manifest as dizziness, among other symptoms.
While other illnesses may also begin with dizziness, the reference specifically highlights these two as examples of nervous system conditions where dizziness can be an initial symptom.
